I just love Broughal! It's the best school ever. Looking at it more students actually do get good grades then fail. The teachers are the best! They are dedicated to their jobs and would stay after school as long as you need for help. Our athletics might not be too good, but every athlete always shows up to practice, everyone shows up at games, and we always try our hardest. We have the best extracurricular activities, there is always something to keep you busy at Broughal. We just have a brand new school. It has too be the most beautiful school I've ever been in. We even have a planatarium, green house, and green roof. That's something most schools don't have. I will always be a Broughal rocket!!
