I like Boyd Buchanan School because of the environment and the integrity of most of its students and teachers. It's somewhere that feels safe, and I know that it is home to many. One thing that I would change about Boyd Buchanan would have to be the lack of extracurriculars. Most of the extracurriculars at Boyd are sports, but I would love to see more of a variety of activities in the future. Extracurriculars are one of the biggest ways to unite students, so for people who aren't good at sports but still need an escape, there should be more of a variety of ways to connect outside of school. Personally, I think that Boyd should offer an artistic group of some sort, or a community service team!
The school has clearly shifted from a more academic "college prep" school, to a sports school. A majority of the funding is put towards sports and athletics and fine arts, education quality, and teacher pay is seriously lacking. Most teachers make little to no money and are fresh out of college and don't have the best understanding of the environment they entered into. This is essentially a public school that you pay for.
I was new to Boyd as a sophmore. I was terrified that I would have no friends and would hate it. After I opened myself up I enjoyed it and the state-of-the-art facilities they provide; not to mention an insanely amazing lunch! The only downside is how standoffish everyone is. It's semi-understandable because these kids have been friends forever because this is a K-12 school.
