Overall, I have found Reno High to be a fantastic experience! The open campus is quite nice, and there are many activities available to students. It seems to me that there is something for everyone! There are clubs of all different natures, as well as sports and other activities relating to the arts and technology. My academic experience has also been great. The staff truly cares for their students and apart from 1 unhelpful teacher, all of my teachers have helped me to effectively understand the subject matter that I am learning. Most of the student body is friendly, though there are some rude kids (but all schools have them). Personally, I haven't had any problems with my peers and I feel relatively safe at school. Though our facility might not be the prettiest with its yellow-tiled walls, there are decent classrooms and quality sports facilities offered here. In all, I've had no major issues here and am grateful that I go to a school with good academics and spirited students.
Reno High School is a very rewarding experience. They have a really nice and accepting atmosphere, with many areas to hang out with friends, and many classroom to feel at home in. The teachers range from either terrible to amazing, there are few that are in between, but most are amazing and are quick to adapt to different teaching styles so that each student learns at their own pace. The Red House Project is a wonderful program to be apart of, and I took most of the classes within that program just to explore what I liked and what I didn't, and the teachers were okay with that! They wanted you to try something new, and were very supportive. The Animation Room was one of the most active yet comfortable environments for someone like myself, and if you're going to Reno to enter this program I highly recommend it. It was one of the best experiences of my life, even with it's ups and downs.
The education I received from Reno High was excellent. I was a less than decently versed with my mathematics. Thanks to Mr. Liessman and Mr. G, I was able to fully understand my math concepts in easy and manageable segments. I started with failing my first midterm my first year to ending with a 100% on my all final exams as a senior. All the staff was wonderful and really cares about their students. The culture really wants you to learn and grow, even if you don’t pursue uni or college.
Science, history, English, and my electives were exceptional. Even my college AP classes are amazing. I felt genuinely prepared for my college experience and it made it a flawless transition. Thank you to all of the amazing teachers and administrators that changed my life forever.
