This school is full of passions and love! Teachers and students are nice and friendly. The school provides a safe environment for learning and offers many fun activities while in school; for example, the pyramid competition, spirit week and the autumn fest. This school provides technical program once you are in 11th grade, which can allow you to learn about the major that you are interested in and can be certified. I really enjoy being in this school and will give me an unforgettable high school year!

This school gave me a chance to explore my academic talents. I started as a regular student then transferred to honors and my last year ended up in advance placement! I would have never pushed myself to my full potential I didn't have an amazing Freshman teacher that constantly pushed me to be better and convinced me to enter the honors program and sure enough it was the best thing I did! Although I didn't participate in any sports and after school activities, lunch period was amazing because my peers and I got along so well and felt safe. Most of my educators were intelligent and humorous which is a plus.
Coming into Atlantic High School as a freshman, I was surrounded by many familiar faces which made me feel like at home. Over the years, I have met a lot of great open-minded people whom I will never forget. I have made a lot of connections and friendships, which I will cherish forever. As for academics, I was in the International Baccalaureate program which is a very rigorous corse but I has gotten me ready for college! Over the years, there were good times and bad times, but overall the good outweigh the bad. I would recommend Atlantic High to anyone who wants to experience diversity, an uplifting setting, spirited, and overall well rounded high school!
