As all schools, First Flight High is no exception. Yet when it comes to a close nit community and friends for life, this is definitely the place to come to. The teachers here are exceptional, they will work after school with you which means giving up free time with their own families to benefit you in anyway possible. Inside the school there are more clubs that are student run than I can count! From morning yoga sessions to environmental science clubs. From my time as a student here I can't say I could ever seriously complain about any of the staff involved within the school. One of our very own English teacher goes out of her way to make sure kids that one to go but can't exactly afford to go-can go on spring trips that are provided by the school. Overall, I can't convince you that this school is the best one out there. All I can say is that it's my home and I doubt I would trade it for any other high school in the world based on the people who made it that way for me.
I enjoy sports. Our sports program is great. The teachers are average, they prepare us for college and that is it. there are a couple teachers I love. The kids are actually pretty mean, everything revolves around popularity. What can you expect tho, everybody is a beach bum. Most kids get good grades even if they are mean. I love basketball, our varsity boys team is the best team ever! They are about to play the 2nd round of the playoffs! They dominate!
First Flight High School is a pleasant school that does its best to listen to the individual students and provide the resources necessary. They offer many classes to create a custom schedule appealing to specific students. However, the staff that they hire contains many issues. Many staff members do not treat the students with the respect they deserve as human beings, but the school chooses to look past this. Despite this flaw, First Flight High School is still an overall benefit to me and many other students.
