As a Junior at Natick High School, I wish I could say I've had a better experience. Unfortunately, this school has a lot more negative aspects than positive ones.
Pros
- Can eat lunch outside
- Junior/senior priv
- Lenient dress code
- Technology
- Campus
- Food!
- Lots of college preparation
Cons
- Caters to male athletes
- Overcrowding in halls and cafeteria (dangerous)
- $250 for parking pass/bus fee every year
- Bathrooms
- Student safety (fights, fires, dangerous pranks, etc)
- Bad teachers!
- Frequent bullying/cyberbullying, racism, homophobia, sexism, etc & no teacher intervention
- Sports favoritism and hard to join without experience
- Junior lot = long walk to school & dangerous in winter
- Cliques, extremely judgmental people, toxic boys with inflated egos, women are disrespected
- Extremely competitive environment for academics & athletics
My biggest concern: Drowning in work load, overworked, burnout, exhausted, absences, and POOR MENTAL HEALTH & nothing is being done!

Natick High School is a beautiful high school in Central Massachusetts with around 1600 students attending. Natick High School offers all levels of difficulty classes from college-prep to ap courses. The teachers at this school are amazing and always willing to work with students before or after school to work through problems students are having. They're also lenient about extensions due to students' busy schedules. The guidance counselors at Natick High are fantastic and are great at guiding students to become the best versions of themselves by the time they graduate through resilience, leadership, respect, etc. There are all sorts of sports teams that students are able to try out for at Natick High. Furthermore, Natick is huge on school spirit and getting involved in clubs or sports. Additionally, there are around 60 clubs to choose from at this school. Students are given amazing resources, trustworthy adults they can go to for help, and a great safe environment to do school in.
Overall, I had a great experience at Natick High School! The school had access to lots of great resources and technology, especially lab equipment for science classes. I was able to take a biology class that did labs that are typically only offered in college settings, such as doing bacteria stains. One thing I wish Natick did a better job of would be connecting students with summer internships. Although the school offers an internship during the spring of one's senior year, it offered little connections for opportunities during the summer.
