High school is rough and luckily the staff at Emerald Ridge during my time was fantastic. They helped me to plan my college plans. Even though my plans changed through the years I still think high school prepped me for the days to come. Some of my teachers were better than others but that comes with the territory. I enjoyed high school but as always, was excited to get out!
I believe what would've helped me ease into the transition between high school and college, would be more emphasis on 'college readiness'. Offering a class that prepares you for 'adult life' like practice with loans, financial planning, etc.. Similar to what I learned in "Life Issues" class at Ballou Junior High these life skills would have allowed me to be more confident in my transition into post-high school life.
Some teachers are very good at understanding the students and are considerate of how you’re doing. Many different types of classes are available for students who want to expand their interests. The assemblies and sport events are very fun to attend, especially the football games.
