Annapolis High School Reviews
Rating 3.59 out of 5 354 reviews
While Annapolis High School has a strong focus on unity and community, I find that AHS doesn't always have the resources needed to build and strengthen the community. The school is underfunded and overcrowded, and there are not enough advocates for students in the form of counselors, mental health experts, and general support staff. Despite this, Annapolis has a strong student organization scene, with a multitude of thriving clubs and sub communities like Black Student Union, One Love, Future Business Leaders of America, Unified Sports, and a Wonderful Student Government Association. Annapolis is a very diverse school and I have always felt that the students come first. Annapolis is also home to a Performing and Visual Arts Magnet program, and an Amazing International Baccalaureate diploma program. I think that with the right resources Annapolis could truly excel as a public high school.
As a 2020 high school grad from Annapolis High School, I had a pretty good experience! I can't complain too much because overall I received a good education with caring teachers who desired success for their students as well as helpful students who desired prosperity for their peers. My school definitely had its flaws like any school, however the issue that made it difficult at times for me to see my school as fully unified was the voluntary segregation of diverse groups of students and programs. Most kids who where of the same ethnicity were friends and did not mix as much outside of their groups along with kids who were in special magnet programs. Even though this issue disappointed me, I still believe that the teaching staff and student body did a fairly well job respecting people's differences, learning styles, personalities and/or capabilities. My school was very inclusive of students with special needs by incorporating them in the same elective classes as other students!
Annapolis High School is a very good school overall. There are many students each period who skip class, and in certain hallways there isn't enough supervision over these students who skip class. There were some issues surrounding buses/transportation being inconsistent at the beginning of the 2022-2023 school year, but that problem has decreased since. The teachers are good overall, and the ones that I've had care about their students. As a student in the Apex Arts program, I had to do an internship over the summer of 135 hours. I did not meet that requirement over the summer, and had to balance my internship with my schoolwork in my senior year. Since I take 2 AP classes as well, I need to manage my time efficiently enough to do well in these subjects, along with my senior capstone and internship. I didn't have many friends, so the few people I made friends with were the ones in the Apex Arts program. Challenging academic experience, tough social environment.
