My name is Kennedy Bass I am 17 years old and my experience with Hamilton county has been okay. We are a pretty divided District but seem to get along in some cases. I do not have anything against Hamilton county other than that they can do more for their inner-city schools like Howard, Brainerd, and Tyner. It disturbs me because I previously attended East Hamilton high school for two years and now more recently, I'm attending an inner-city school where there is a lack of support that is needed in these schools. For example, we cannot afford a coach in sports soccer, lacrosse, track and field, and softball.
Before attending Collegiate High School I attended Boyd Buchanan and I was a cheerleader. I loved this and never thought I would want to change schools, but due to health issues I was unable to cheer so I began looking for more opportunities. Now that I am attending Collegiate High I able to do full time duel enrollment to get ahead in college! With my time there the faculty have been very helpful and want the best for me. They made sure to help me feel welcome and still continue to this day! I have loved every second of being there and I am looking forward to another year!
There are many great qualities to Hamilton County. I believe it to be a very nurturing environment, and I wholeheartedly enjoyed the education I received there. It isn’t the best in all areas but there are specific schools in the county that offer different things. We have STEM schools, Performing Art schools and many others. To be successful here you just need to find you Niche(your proper fit).
