My experience at King Drew Medical High School has been very good. Even though my first 9th grade year has been on zoom, there good parts about this school that I love. The teachers love the engage with you and do care about how you may be feeling. When you need help, the school lets teachers host office hours. Office hours are teachers giving a separate class after school for any students that need clarification on something or are confused about the lesson that was taught to them. It is very diverse and you get to see many students of different colors and backgrounds. King Drew offers many opportunities . For example, this schools has a Heath Care which gives the students an opportunity to go to MLK Hospital and observe the professionals in person and do fun labs. I do recommend this school for students who would like to be in the doctor field in the future and for students that just wants a positive, hard-working, fun school that has teachers that pushes you to your limit!
When I first entered King/Drew, I thought that this school was going to be a very boring school. All of my friends went to other high schools such as San Pedro or Narbonne, so all I had was my twin sister. Although at the beginning of the school year I did not have many friends, along the way I met a variety of wonderful people who I am proud to call friends today. The teachers at this school are accommodating and kind. They are willing to sacrifice their time to make sure you are understanding the material. King/Drew also has a medical program that helps students who are interested in the medical field gain the experience that they need. I was also part of this medical program. Overall, King/Drew is a beautiful school that knows how to have fun but also prepares you for the future.
Currently, I am a freshman at King/Drew Medical Magnet High School for Medicine and Science. Although we are at home doing distance learning, my school never fails to give us a good time. We have talent shows, dances, and other events held via zoom that are amazing! My teachers are all so great and make learning fun for me, I couldn’t imagine attending another school!
