Rating 3.83 out of 5 132 reviews
I attended 2 different Frederick county schools and had great experiences with both.all around I had great staff in both schools and I was able to enjoy a wonderful learning environment as well as progress as In individual in each aspect of sports,learning and relationships with my peers.One problem id say was very predominant in my high school was the use of drugs and alcohol whether it was in school or around but other than that my school was very diverse and I got to experience great people and great times and was given great opportunities that allowed me to advance in my academics like AP classes,college classes,CTC, and lynx experiences that allowed me to get a hands on feel of any career I was interested in and really pushed me to aim higher in my career.
The school system is made up of great teachers and facilities, but much else is lacking. I find that, as an arts student, my experience is often less valued than sports. Although our program is always rigorous and good, we find our attendance to be less than the losing sports team's. We also recieve no funding from the school, and are required to fundraise or pay for everything ourselves. Also, there are many less arts classes available due to a lack of teachers that are willing to teach them.
Frederick County Public schools, specifically Middletown High School in Middletown, Maryland, has more than prepared me for my future in college. The academics were diverse and beneficial, offering AP, Honors, and even college classes in high school. The teachers were supportive and positive, always looking out for the students in the best way possible. The sports were a hit in high school and would provide a sense of community to the members. I feel a way Frederick County could improve is the arts section of the schooling, as it is a personal passion of mine. The arts were spectacular but compared to my previous school in Washington County, it lacked much needed unity and a strong peer vibe, creating a sense of rank and discord among classes. The classes and resources provided by the Frederick County Schooling was a must-have for any high schooler, and will provide a huge boost in my college resumes as I continue applying for schools.
