As a student at Cottondale High School I will say that I absolutely love it. I love this school, because I can have a good relationship with all my teachers and I know that even years after I graduate I will be able to come back and thank them for everything they have did. CHS has many wonderful teachers who really do care about the well being of their students and for that I wouldn't want to be at any other school. My teachers try their very best to make sure that we understand what they are teaching, which is very important. They never let us give up, they tell us to keep moving and get the job done not to just get by, but to succeed in what we are doing in the classroom and also in life.
