Rocky Mount High School Reviews
Rating 3.78 out of 5 170 reviews
I think my school is the best school in the county. The teachers are very nice to every student. Moreover, they are not racist. I think this is the best quality that every educator should present to the students, and the teachers at my school are! Everyone is equal and hard-working and everyone at my school is treated similarly. There is no discrimination and talking bad behind one another. However, I do think that my knowledge does have flaws. This is because I do not know all of the teachers at my school; however, I can represent the majority. For instance, one of my teachers is super chill, we do work and once we finished our work, then we are allowed to listen to music and talk as long as we do not distract other students. Therefore, my experiences at my school are really different from other schools around the county. For example, I do hear many bad things, but they might be just rumors. My principal is very friendly, and we are able to talk to him for any concerns.
Nothing at all, great school! It is always fun to be at Rocky Mount High School with different adolescents around your age and it is straightforward to make friends. The environment in the school is friendly and welcoming. I never have to worry about anything int his school, the administration is excellent!
The best parts of my high school experience were from spending time with my classmates who became my close friends. The classes provide you interactive learning activities that allow you to connect with your classmates, which I really like. On the negative side, the worst of my high school experiences stems from interactions with the staff and teachers here. Specifically teachers of higher level classes, like IB and AP classes, show little regard for the mental health of their students. From my experience, many of them will load excessive work onto students with the excuse that a “higher level” class should be able to handle it. This type of mindset from teachers has lead me to drop out of higher level learning programs due to stress.
