I love my counsler and my teachers- senior year has been great. Braden River even has a unique school rule about not stepping on the grass within the courtyard. However, with that unusual rules come some more ridiculous ones. No leggings, no hair color, and basically no shorts. I say "basically no shorts" because it has to be well past your finger tip- or you risk getting called on it. Most of the student population ends up wearing jeans or sweats, but luckily they have great air conditioning!
I absolutely love the art program at this school! It is amazing and the instructors are active professionals in the art world allowing their students to be exposed to the real art world. The problem is that the school only funds the sports team and neglects the arts, both visual and performing. The biggest problem is the administration; I was glad to hear the admin were strict at this school because the middle school I had come from had a weak admin and the students were out of control. However, this school is ridiculously strict, especially about dress code with girls. This school is located in Florida and it gets extremely hot but girls have to be completely covered up. They're a little obsessive about the dress code in my opinion. The teachers overall are really good, and I can't complain much.
Braden River High School is like any other high school; annoying students, crowded hallways, and stress pimples. But the reason I gave it four out of five stars is not only for its delicious breakfast food, but because it has some of the most amazing and nicest teachers working there. Of course, I did not like every teacher I worked with, but the individuals that I do love will forever hold a place in my heart and have made a huge impact on me and my outlook on life. I am so grateful they are apart of my life as a young adult. I know they are not reading this but I still wanted to thank them for everything that they have done for me! :)
