Roswell genuinely has its good qualities that many other schools may not have, but in my personal experience, something about the school rendered me incapable of academically performing the way I previously had. Like anything, it does have its bad qualities, too. I've formed close bonds with some of my teachers and my counselor, as well as other staff, and you can tell they want you to succeed. I will say, there's been a history of fights over the years, the bathrooms most definitely need some touch-ups (they're actually disgusting, in my opinion), and sometimes a teacher might say something irrational, but overall, I think I had a good experience. I now take online classes, but it's more about personal circumstances, rather than the school. Go Hornets!

I overall liked my experience at Roswell! I have had amazing teachers 90% of the time who help me out and want me to learn and understand. There are so many clubs, sports, and activities for all students. It would be hard to not get involved. The only thing I would like to see change is the bathrooms. It would be one thing if they just were a little dirty (because they are public bathrooms), but there are broken seats and broken doors and half the time there’s no hand soap.
Roswell High School in Roswell, Georgia is an excellent school to obtain a great education. And I'm not just saying that, our school is ranked 15th in the state of Georgia and 448th in the country. We are also a leading STEM school in the country. Students who graduate from Roswell are prepared to go out into the world and make an impact. If you're looking for a great place to raise your family and a great education for your children, give Roswell a try! You won't be disappointed. Go Hornets!
