    Deer Park High School provided the best experience possible within me. It cultivated within me the passion to learn, challenged my intellectual ability and encouraged me to forge new pathways in personal education. They equipped me with the skills I needed to succeed in University life and in Career life. Their encouragement to be involved and be active in the community helped to prepare me for a life of servant hood and challenged students to go out of their comfort zone in order to facilitate growth. I am thankful for the education I received at Deer Park High School.

    I loved going to Deer Park Highschool, there were many different classes that sparked my interest in STEM and the academic aids were very helpful. I go back and visit some and check in with some of my old teachers, but they have made some good and bad choices in new teachers that they have brought in. I've been by and I still have some friends in highschool and they are telling me some things about these new teachers that have come in and it's not that great. I have personally experienced it first hand. They have gone somewhat downhill from where they used to be.
    My overall experience at this school so far has been great! I have been here, at the high school, since 7th grade up until now, a 10th grader. What makes this school unique are definitely the teachers and the tight-knitted community. Everyone seems to know each other and everyone is like family. Whoever you bump into, there is something that you have to know about them. It's a small community and it is truly great. My favorite experiences at this school would definitely be the concerts and events that the school hosts. They are all extremely fun and the whole community gets together as well. Parker's is another one of my favorite because you get to see another side of students that you don't get to see in classes and it's amazing to see many talents and efforts put into this Deer Park tradition. I would definitely choose this school again if I could do it all over.
