    Grandville is a place that provides a lot of opportunity, whether it's through sports, music, or academics. I find myself extremely grateful that I've had the chance to participate in the various extracurriculars that the school offers, and also the AP classes that the school teaches as well; I know that I wouldn't have been able to succeed or grow as a student if I hadn't had these chances. In my experience, the only downside to the school is a small amount of carelessness from some staff. There have been times where I've been in a class and students have caused disruptions, but the teacher at the time chose to ignore it due to favoritism or pure laziness. The biggest issue was something that I approached this year. The teacher did not seem prepared to teach the class, did not make a positive learning environment, and overall did little teaching and instead relied on power points and worksheets. Otherwise, this school is, for the most part, a great place for students to learn.
    Grandville High School is an excellent school. The area where it exceeds over other schools is the resources. Each student is provided with a free laptop for the whole four years. The facilities are superior, academically and athletically. Therefore, every student is given endless opportunities to excel in classes that interest them, sports, music, and many other activities. Also, there are many clubs, where students are given the opportunity to get involved with helping their school and community.
    In regards to the overall environment of the school, it is very welcoming and safe. The school has daily security, therefore students don't have to worry about their safety. In addition, the administration and teachers' only goal is to help the students better their skills and abilities, so there is always someone to help.
