I like the way that the school system works with students. It can be hard at times, but they try their best when dealing with the students. The one thing that I would like to see change is having more support for the arts department. We are so focused on the number one athletes in sports. The arts department do not receive enough attention.
I have been attending Belle Plaine Junior/Senior High since the start of my junior high career. When I first came here, I knew I was going to love it. I had been dreaming about the day when I would be able to attend high school with the older kids, doing what they do whether it be sports, drama, clubs, or extracurricular of any kind. I quickly learned that my school has much more pride than I originally thought, and works hard to make sure any student who enters the building leaves with character, dignity, and a plan for their future. I was a part of drama throughout school, with Individual Speech being my favorite yearly activity. In 2018, I was the only person at Belle Plaine to perform in the All State Individual Speech competition. I won a banner for my school, which is now proudly hung in our library. I am excited to move on to college, and I know that the skills I learned at Belle Plaine will make it so I already have the hard working, positive attitude I will need for college.
I like how the teachers were always willing to help me if I need help with homework or if I had a personal problem. I wish that they prepared us a little better for college.
