My school is the most enjoyable place for me. My school is located very near to my home. I walk to my school every day. I like the prayer assembly in my school. Our school pupil leader conducts the assembly every day. I love all my teachers. They are very kind and polite in correcting our mistakes. They have never been hard on us. So, we have always tried our best to study well and write our exams well. My school is known for its best results in our locality. I am very proud of my school. I like my school very much.
From my experience, I think that Columbus County Schools are overall mediocre. I think that this is partially due to limited finances.
My school in particular (Columbus Career & College Academy) has lost many teachers over the past few years because they moved elsewhere for better pay. The teachers we have, though, are generally very helpful to the students.
But I have also run into a problem with the school being very vague and unhelpful when it comes to helping prepare for college. A few of my classmates have complained to me of the same issues. It might just be my school in particular due to its administration's poor organization/communication skills, but they are lackluster when it comes to helping students be ready for college.

I went to Columbus Career and College academy and while my experience wasn't terrible, it still wasn't great. Occasionally I couldn't get access to books for my college classes, and if I had the book it was normally a few editions behind. However, the teachers like Mrs. Ward and Mrs. Gore are why I excelled.
