I have been at North Thurston high school since October of my freshman year in 2018. My high school career consisted of one and a half normal years and one and a half years online due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. Before covid North Thurston High School was very high spirited. The students got excited for events and assemblies. Since we have been back for my senior year, it feels…drained. The students aren’t as social as they use to be but half of the students have never been in a high school environment before covid either. I just hope the school is able to bounce back from the unexpected stall in social and educational experiences. I had a blast my freshman and sophomore year and want others to be able to experience the liveliness the school could provide.
North Thurston Public Schools are okay. Since Covid especially, things have gone pretty downhill. The administrators do not tell us anything that is going on when there is a conflict that may affect students' mental health, such as alarms going off or just different conflicts around the school. Students and teachers are kept from what is going on. The administrators also do not seem to care about any racism, sexism, or harassment that is happening. I'm not one to speak out about it, but they have made our schools feel less safe and that they just do not care. I have had some great teachers though who I know truly care about the students and how they are doing in school, and want us to speak up and grow personally.
One positive thing about North Thurston Public Schools is the community involvement. The district is very good at reaching out to the public with events, fund raisers, and volunteers. One thing I would change is the boards detachment to the lower class schools within the district. It's almost as though they don't see any use in putting energy into the less admired schools. The students at these lower class schools have recognized it because it is such a prominent issue.
