My overall experience from Yuma High School doesn't include a lot of ups and downs because I think that YHS does a very good job by creating a safe and welcoming space. Even when I was a freshman and thought that high school was very intimidating I felt like it was very inviting. I have usually had good experiences with YHS and if I did have any bad experiences, I can't remember any of them.

I liked Yuma High School because the school was very supportive about decisions. Although it is a small school, everyone has the same opportunities as everyone else.
