My experience at Norfolk Public Schools has been an overall enjoyable one. My teachers have always worked hard to include everyone in class and they do their best in order for us to succeed. I have never felt out of place in my school district instead, I felt more seen than I have ever been for most of my life. The student body is diverse and understanding of each others' differences. I have yet to witness someone being bullied or treated poorly because of their race, sexuality, religion or anything other aspect. I feel as though it is a great environment for children from various backgrounds to interact and understand each other.
Overall, Norfolk Public Schools is a quality educational district. Every school's teachers have their own distinct teaching style. Because sports are so popular in Norfolk, every school there always relies on them. Here, too, the students are decent. Because most schools were built in the 1900s, one thing they need to do is rebuild some of them. Overall, Norfolk City Public Schools is a good learning environment.
Norfolk public schools has been a safe environment for me. The teachers are truly phenomenal and Booker T. Washington High School has the absolute best counselor ever, Mrs. Hillian. Booker T. also has the best principal, Dr. Hayes. I've grown up in Norfolk Public Schools all my life and it has been an amazing experience. The teachers are dedicated to their student for sure and it is very evident in the work that they do. I have had the pleasure of getting to know many teachers and many of the administrators and everyone is very kind and welcoming.
