I enjoy the environment here! Every teacher I had helped me grow as a person. I feel strongly connected to the student body and I have made a lot of friends at this school. There are several learning opportunities inside and outside of the classroom; in addition to offering several challenging classes, there are several clubs and sports to participate in.
Science Hill has an amazing campus, ranked 17th in the state of Tennessee and a 93% graduation rate. I loved that my school offered Women’s wrestling a growing. As a hispanic minority, they offered ESL (English as a second language) which was extremely helpful as a first generation American. it The administration and staff handled the 2020 school year affected by the COVID-19 pandemic with a few bumps but it was overcome. They offered hybrid and remote learning. It is magnet school with 27% minority. It offers many classes on career technology. We are offered opportunities to take the Advanced Placement tests. We live in the same City as East Tennessee University. In conclusion, Science Hill is an amazing school. We have a slogan “Topper 4 life”, because of the unforgettable memories made here.
Life as a student can be overwhelming, but the class scheduling at Science Hill attempts to make it less stressful. Some departments are excellent (for example, the arts programs) while others are lacking — math being the primary issue. Our high school is large at over 2000 students, but can seem small if participating in higher level classes. We offer a large number of AP classes, though honors is not as numerous. Science Hill’s counseling department is decent, but each counselor has their forte.
