Rowan Salisbury School System has been less than ideal to me over my years. They have had bad ideas and poor execution of ideas. Next year, they plan on downgrading from every student having a laptop to every student having an iPad. This will make typing essays and accessing different websites ectremely difficult. I went to North Carolina's Governor's School West, and met tons of people from different counties that did NOT have to pay the $500 tuition because their school system covered it. I also met a lot of people with much harder courses available to them. Courses I couldn't take in RSS unless it was online.
So far, my experience in Rowan-Salisbury School District has just been average. Although the teachers are great, there is not enough preparation for our future career. We are not getting enough guidance to make our ways into the real world. As a junior, I feel as if I do not have the information needed to start searching for my future college or even my major. I do not have the knowledge of what all of my options include, which makes it fairly difficult to make decisions regarding my future career. Other than this, Rowan-Salisbury Schools is a pretty diverse place where students from all over are welcomed.
The teachers are great. So much dedication to the students, even after advancing to the next grade or the next school, they are still willing to help the kids out with anything needed. In todays society teachers have so many more issues to deal with. We have never had any of them say they were to busy to help!!
