Some teachers are pretty bad. They don’t realy understand how to teach. I don’t want to name any names, but some science teachers didn’t really prepare me for anything. He basically just gave us a test 4 days after giving us a pointless powerpoint to study for. Although, some teachers are amazing, like Mr. Lawler. He was very helpful in Pre-Alg and actually taught me something!
The accessibility and amount of funding was really great, but the diversity and inclusion at the school leaves something to be desired. The general atmosphere of pushing young students too hard is also very damaging in the long run. No one should have to give up so much of their sanity like the schools asks of children!
What I like about Lower Merion School District is that they follow a strict curriculum which each school is included in. They have certain days that students are allowed off such as holidays and breaks such as winter break. Lower Merion School District is also aware of the danger of students traveling in weather such as snow. not only do they pay attention to the students situations with coming to school, but also going home. One thing that I would like to see change about the school district is the diversity. I would like to see more African Americans in the community. I would also like the schools in this district to be able to come together and do things together. Although we are not in the same interact as certain schools, I would like to see the schools do more together.
