I am having a great time at this school. We have student artwork and awards in the halls all the time. We offer so many classes that I kind of wish I had another year to take more. We are constantly adding more and more classes. For instance, next year we have a new conspiracy theory class that I want to take. We have a great layout for the school, with only really one or two hallway crowds despite having 500 extra students this year. I also wish that teachers pushed me more when I was a freshman because it kind of sunk my GPA. If I had to go back as a freshman, I wouldn't have spent so much time gossiping and blowing of homework, and instead paying attention in biology and literature. I probably also would have had my schedule changed as a sophomore because I got into some altercations with like 10 different students.

Although I am not in any clubs whatsoever, I know that we have many clubs. Every morning on the announcements you'll probably hear about ten different clubs meeting that day. Other times of the year it's usually about the sports going on that day/week. We have a huge range too. We have chess club, French club, German club, Spanish club, scuba-diving club, tabletop club, ASL club, anime club, and about ten others. Even the most "clubby" person in school couldn't possibly join all the clubs we offer.
