As a current student enrolled at, Amelia high I can say it has been the typical high school experience. Classes that stress the students out, teachers that become roll models and mentors, friendships that will last a life time and so on. However, I feel that Amelia does offer many programs for the gifted students. One of the best and most rigorous opportunities includes the governors school program that only accepts a number of students to experience college in high school. This one of a kind school gives the students the unique chance to attain an associates in either STEM or Humanities. Other options include Dual enrollment, Vo-Tech, AP classes and of course there are also honors classes. Therefore, as I continue to experience high school at Amelia I know that with the broad amount of choices that are available I will get the most of out it.
I transferred to Amelia County High School my sophomore year. In the past 2 years I have experienced a lot. The people here are amazing. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. Being a new student, I was very nervous, but the second I walked through those doors I was immediately welcomed by students and teachers. The transfer was a huge difference for me. I moved from a very small middle/high school, to a pretty decent sized high school. Classes were much more educational and the technology that was available to me made learning so much more convenient. Teachers find the exact way you learn best and go with it, even if it isn’t something they are completely familiar with. Teachers assist students in any way possible. They also act as friend in times of need. Overall, my experience here has been great. Everyone is friends with everyone which is exactly what you need for an educational environment to be successful, and to make students want to go to school.
I recently graduated from ACHS. I overall had a pleasant experience. The facilities aren't the greatest, but I felt I got along with the teachers and staff well. I enjoyed the sports atmospheres and the different events they scheduled throughout the year.
