I attended Raytown High School all four years of high school (9-12). There was not a day that passed by that I did not enjoy waking up and looking forward to having such a great day at this school. From the amount of activities to be involved in to the teachers great teaching ethics this school was great. Throughout my years if attending this school, I had all of the resources that I needed from receiving an education to being counseled my senior year when applying fr colleges. The amount of support from administration and staff was out of this world. They were always big on pushing students to be their best. I personally feel that if it wasn't for the staff pushing me to be great and guiding me down the right path, I would not be on my 3rd year of college. To this day I still communicate with some of the staff because they are just that great. These are some of the people who have inspired me to want to pursue a career in education. All around I would rate my old high school 10/10!
What I liked about Raytown High School was the faculty, my dance coach, my dance team, and my friends of course. These people made my highschool experience the best it could be. I enjoyed being on and captaining the Jaywalker dance team, I loved being part of something that was more than just my classes. I was proud to be a motivator for our sports teams as well. Even though our school is not a very big school or one that is worldly known, it still is a big part of who I am.
One thing that I would change about my school is the lack of communication or the miscommunication. After COVID, there has been many changes and lots of new faculty and coaches who don't know a lot about how the school used to do things making it hard to stay united and communicate like we used to. Hopefully, after we all get the hang of this new life we will go back to a new normal.

My first year of high school experience was not in the best of circumstances. Online learning was difficult to transition to, because of Covid-19 I feel like a lot of experiences were stolen from me. Even though it wasn't the best I did learn something about myself through the process. Firstly, I have poor time management, secondly I get distracted easily. I had 2 B's and probably a C. And the C was in one of the most easiest classes band. I missed lot's of opportunities simply because I thought school was an option. I had better participation in classes I thought were important, and my grades weren't the best. I just could have done a lot more to improve over all. In the second trimester we did have the option to do in person learning, and having the teacher there and being in person made me more focused and I participated way more. This improved my grades leaving me with 6 A's and 1 b. I could have done better overall, but this was a good learning experience.
