    Something I really liked about Central Lyon was that most of my teachers made themselves readily available for questions. Something that I really found frustrating was the lack of punishment for cheating. It felt very inconsistent, only certain students seemed to be truly punished for it.

    I like how safe Central Lyon makes you feel with the locked doors that you must be buzzed into because that way you know that bad people will have a much harder time breaking into my school. The facilities at Central Lyon are very nice and it also is great to have access to computers and technology like this school provides. You can tell that the teachers really care about their students here by the amount of time they put in to see someone succeed or how they go out of their way to give help to a student family that needs it.
    The teachers care about the students and want them to succeed. Students are fairly kind to each other and care about each other's well-being.
    One thing I would like to change is how our small town sized school doesn't always get opportunities.
