I thought going to Aurora was overall a really good experience. I never realized how advanced my school is academically until I talked with kids from out of school and new teachers who transferred shared their experiences with me. Taking AP and honors classes in my school is normal and almost everyone takes at least one. I learned that's not the case in other schools and AP classes or very rare and don't include many students. Knowing this and being able to not only take the class but had the resources to succeed made my experience so much better. Socially, my school encouraged group work and fun interactions between students and teachers. I made so many new friends in my classes as well as made connections and relationships with my teachers. One of my favorite activities is the teacher vs students basketball game which is fun to participate in as well as watch from the stands. My school did everything it could to make our experience amazing all four years, especially during Covid-19.
Good academics and students here are high achievers. The school building itself is decent but nothing astonishing. Teachers are either really good, or not very good, although all seem to care about your education. The classroom environment seems average although a lot of teachers put a little extra into their rooms when it comes to decorating. I feel like the school has a decent amount of clubs but there isn’t a huge turnout for most of them. Due to covid “A time” and a block schedule has been implemented which I personally like and based on student feedback it seems the school is going to keep it. It means that half of your classes are on Green Day’s and half are on white days, currently, it is only block days on Wednesday and Thursday but you still have a period of A time which is pretty much study hall but sometimes has some extra activities. This schedule allows for more flexibility and opportunities to enhance your education.
I absolutely loved growing up in the Aurora City Schools District. I had so much freedom when I started high school because I could pick what classes I was interested in based on my skill set, what electives I wanted to learn more about, what sports I wanted to play, and what clubs I wanted to join! My sophomore year of high school I joined a program called College Credit Plus where I got to go to college half a day and my high school the other half. I loved this opportunity because I have most of my college credits and electives already out of the way for when I begin college this fall! I would 10/10 recommend going to Aurora!
