My experience in Elsik High School has been phenomenal, I have learnt so much about myselfand how to relate to others. I have learnt to be grateful for every little thing I have, I have learnt discipline, punctuality and above all, I grew up mentally,physically,socially,spiritually e.t.c it is safe to say that My experience in Elsik High School is one for the Record! I had fun mostly late around my junior year and my entire senior year, it was one of those years where I watch my hard work and perseverance manifest. I love the fact that Elsik High School is a place full of different races and ethnicity it is filled with different cultures and people whereby each person has something to offer, Being in the midst of such a diverse group ranging from principal to janitor, I learnt a lot about life and people in general..that experience gave me the basic tools i needed to succeed in the "Real world" I want the sports resources to be better all sports should have advanced systems and more.
My high school experience was pretty great overall! Even though it had its up's and down'n , its full of passion and greatness. The one thing that's not great is the food. The food doesn't taste good, I usually have ask one of the seniors to bring me some food becasue they're the only ones that can leave campus. I hope they improve the menu sometime soon. Another change I like to see more students getting involve with organizations and activities. It would make their high school experience more appealing.
I really enjoy the amount of diversity that is present in this culture. Nearly everyone I know has a different background. Nobody is really mean or evil-spirited, and students as well as teachers try to help one another if possible. Speaking of teachers, they great at their job and take their time to interact have try to have some fun with students, making it a understable and easygoing learning experience. The one thing that I would isn't so great is the food. The food isn't always something you want to eat, as it sometimes doesn't taste good. I hope the menu receives a change sometime soon. If theirs one aspect I like the most about the school, it is most certainly sports, mainly football. I love football to death, and I even play for my school! I enjoy the team aspect of football, and how we have to work together as a family. It's pretty heartwarming to me.
