What school district is Princeton High School part of?
Cool! This is a very competitive school district after all. My peers motivated me to do better in my SAT tests and other major tests. I am happy with the company I was exposed to. My friends were at the same IQ level as me and some were above. Although we had fun, the people who I interacted with were still focused. The homework was tough but it got me ready for the style and amount of homework which was given to me in college. I liked the diversity. Many people played with everybody. There was always acceptance when your friends are absent. The teachers were calm but fierce when they needed it. Overall this was a great school to me. I always look forward to going to school tomorrow. I never feel like I didn't want to go.
