    What I like about Alpharetta High School is that it is very diverse in its students, meaning all races and ethnicities are comfortable. Also, all sorts of activities, clubs, and sports are enjoyed by students, fitting their specific preferences. A couple of things that should improve is the quality of cafeteria food and faculty members concerning about the mental health of their students. Many students have mental problems relating to school and it’s academic work. More school faculty members should be more concerned and considerate about their students’ well-being.
    Alpharetta High School is the perfect place for students with ambition and drive to work. When I first arrived to Alpharetta I struggled. My previous school was no where near as academically challenging. Therefore, getting used to the rigorous courses this new school offered took a bit of extra help. One of the gradation coaches pulled me from class and we discussed the issues I was having with my grades. She then gave me FREE tutors for the courses I needed the most help with. The school reaching out to me and helping me conquer my academic hardship, showed me that they really care for their students. To say the least, I am proud to be a RAIDER.
