    Before I graduated I liked the path the school was heading towards. My high school has so much diversity and culture. Because It was an international high school we always had a day called international day where we would have students, teachers or outside vendors bring in food that was from different countries. From having these days Learned so much about different cultures and ethnicities.

    Many teachers were informative and supportive towards their students, especially in my English as a Second Language class. My ESL teachers have provided a great range of support and tools for us to adjust in an American school. Furthermore, they have created a community within the ESL class which is very helpful for us to connect with each other in various ways. Everyone of us have different languages, culture, and experience which is an interesting community because there is always something new to learn about. Between students friendships have been built and the support with one another greatly helped to achieve more than we thought we would. So, the ESL teachers have greatly enriched the ESL students academically and life experiences.
    Paul is an amazing Public Charter School. I have been there since I was in the 6th grade. The school teaches you how to be a merit scholar, global citizen, and over all great person. They have more of a holistic and inclusive approach that makes each year productive, educational and fun.
