    Senior: My experience at Abilene high has been a very diverse one! This school itself is often quite hectic however, the extracurricular s such as band, choir, and theater have given me a family and some of the best memories I can ever ask for! I’m so glad I went to Abilene high, it helped me to prepare for how to deal with people, different opinions, and tough situations.
