The teacher in this school pick favorite student and with those favorite they give them unfair advantages such as a higher grade. One of my teachers does not like me so that teacher gave me a D in their class but when I averaged out my grades, it should have been a C+. Our principal is another problem, he is only concerned about a certain student and he doesn't even talk to the other students. This school has about 130+ students so it's not that hard to talk to each of them at least once in the four years we are going to be here. One of the few good things about this school is our Guidance Counselor, she makes a personal connection with every student and she genuinely cares. Other teachers act like they hate you when they might not but they still act like it. The new teachers form 2019-2020 I, and many others feel like they should not have been hired. They don't know how to listen to students when they need help and they are generally not very good teachers. Yes a few of them did a very good job in the athletics department, with helping the Jr. High teams but I personally think that is all they are good for.

The availability and ability to participate in extracurricular activities is excellent, because it is a small town and you can be involved in many activities. However, the administration of this school (superintendent and high school principal) are very set in their ways, opposed to changes that could be beneficial to the school system, and frequently biased in the ways they treat their staff.
