For the past four years while attending Marriotts Ridge High School, I have totally embraced the culture respectively. Everyone says that high school is the best four years of your life. Now that I'm months away from graduating, and I must admit it has been "roller coaster" of positive emotions. Looking back at the faculty and the administrators - who all care about the students tremendously. I learned what the words family, love, betrayal, law and life meant. Marriotts Ridge has changed me in a positive way.
