I love the atmosphere among students who are driven to achieve the most that Rome High has to offer. Similarly, I appreciate how much my teachers care. My teachers want to see me succeed and its a great feeling to know that I have people pulling for me on the side lines. They accommodate me and help me adapt to challenges put forth to a student athlete. I also appreciate the opportunity presented at Rome High School. As an AP student, I need classes to challenge me and offer opportunity. Rome high offers many AP classes and dual enrollment opportunities which allow students the chance to earn college credit while earning high school credit.

Overall, Rome High School is a very involved school with a lot of school spirit. We have phenomenal sports teams. The teachers are generally very involved and love working with students. There is a wide variety of courses to choose from, and the is a very large range of diversity within the school, as we have international students attend here.
Over the past 13 years of my life I have been educated through the Rome City Schools System. In my opinion I believe the top ten percent are very well educated and tested to the best of their abilities; however, it is also my belief that the school does not focus on its education for the bottom percentage.
