As I matriculated through CCSD it started out really rocky. I was bullied really bad and my mom wanted to put me in a private school, but couldn't afford it. I have always liked school and made the best of it. I played in the band and was involved in various clubs. I am graduating in the top 10% of my class. I think the educators are overworked and underpaid. My mom took on a job to help other children so that they and their parents wouldn't have to suffer as we did.
A vast majority of the teachers were very aggressive towards students and showed a lack of morals and lack of care for their jobs. They would teach very poorly as if they could care less about their jobs. With that said I had many teachers who were great teachers but the majority were rough. Another problem I had was that CCSD was terrible at planning just about any sort of event whether it was simply just an SAT or something as big as prom. The schools have let the students down a plethora of times. The next big problem I had was how the schools handled Covid. We missed out on so many things from dances to just the normal high school experience. I understand that at first everyone was worried which is fine but even after evidence came out that the virus isn't as serious as thought CCSD decided to keep the mask enforcement and cancled all events. As a football player it was sadning to see that we could only have half of our normal fan crowd.
Charleston is a great place to live and all of my school experiences have been awesome! I couldn't imagine having grown up anywhere else.
