My overall experience with Cheney was/is mostly positive. The instructors are generally experienced and knowledgeable in their respective curriculum, and while there are some bad apples, they are on the whole a great academic team. The atmosphere is rather welcoming, though many people can get unnecessarily upset at the rather stringent dress code and identification system. The trades are thoroughly enjoyable and are to some extent tailored to the interests of the student, with many options and much to do within each of the courses. I would highly recommend Cheney if you are looking for a more practical, less CORE based learning system.
Cheney gave me many opportunities to do it all, being a smaller school. I played two varsity sports, and lead many school organizations. However, more college prep would be helpful!
I would like to see more student and teacher involvement in school activities. The teaching and administrative staff is not diverse, Male staff and students dominant the school. Females are interested in the construction and heavy duty trades but, because it is dominated by males they feel intimidated. I think helping the female population with trade selections would help with the decease in population between freshman and sophomore year. The counseling and secretarial staff could be more understanding when dealing with certain situations.
