Lowell High School is a great place for students to grow and reach their goals, however there are multiple things wrong with the school that need to be changed to see some improvement. Some teachers are awful at teaching causing students to fall behind in the classroom. Furthermore, the school is falling apart making it extremely hard for students to concentrate on their class work. With that being said, the school is an amazing place to meet tons of different people from hundreds of different backgrounds!
Lowell High School is a sprawling ever growing, ever evolving school. It may be old, but now it's rebuilding parts and adding new parts to the body from the students who asked for it, like the new gym building opening this fall the acefemics are great and entirely immersive, the diversity seems to grow even more everyday, as well as the teacher being respectful and impactful in the process. College readiness is well supplemented and has everyone ready for the college journey. Clubs and activity flers hang from wall to wall on every corridor and hallways you enter and the safety of the school are well monitored with cameras hidden amongst the entire campus as well as patrolling security guards. The administration and school culture are beyond excellent as the foods over there are constantly changing and adapting to more cultures. The facilities are often spread out throughout the campus along with the school often being resourceful each time. Lowell High School is a sprawling school.
Hello I am Junior at Lowell High School is overall great school. We are one of the most diverse schools in Massachusetts. We have great programs here such as Trio and GearUp and College and Career Center who help people with college applications, as well we have Early College classes which gives you credits for colleges. This school also offers a variety of different clubs, sports and different and unique classes. Although there are a lot of great things about the high school, I will have to say they don’t really deal with mental health factors within school, there are a lot of good teachers, but not all of them are great. There are also no school buses that bring you to school you have to take a city bus, walk, or pay for a garage pass and drive to school. Besides those factors I believe that this school is great and there is a lot you can do here.
