My experience was wonderful for the most part! The atmosphere was absolutely comforting and I truly enjoyed spending time there. The friends that I made there are among the best people I have ever met. Nearly all of the teachers that I had the pleasure of being taught by were the best educators a student could ask for. Personal connections were more than possible and easy to be created. If there was something that I could change, I would encourage greater outreach for environmentally-friendly operations. While there may be a recycling club, few high schoolers attend this club. In order to increase the attendance, there should be more environmentally-conscious clubs created.
My experience with Cherokee Trail has been great! The environment at Cherokee Trail is very inclusive and welcoming. Every student makes it their goal to include everyone. The students at the school respect diversity and encourage it within everyone. The school spirit at Cherokee Trail is one of the best parts about going to school here. Every football, basketball, and volleyball game is very upbeat and fun. The atmosphere makes my high school experience unforgettable. Not only are the athletics a good part of Cherokee Trail, but the academics are amazing. I've learned so much useful information from my teachers to help carry me through college. The teachers are very understanding when you need help both in and out of class.
My last four years at Cherokee Trail have been very eventful. I believe I have lived the average high school experience. The school itself is very big, with over 3,000 students attending each year. Some teachers strive to help better the understanding of students, even though the homework and tests given can be little to very overwhelming. Academics has been stressful, but I have managed to make many caring friends who have gotten me through it all! At Cherokee Trail, school spirit is no joke. We go above and beyond when it comes to spirit days, sporting events, and other school activities for homecoming week, prom week, and especially wish week! Everyone is so inclusive and we make sure to celebrate the diversity shown throughout the school!
