The staff at Sickles is amazing. Most of the teachers are super welcoming, they care about their students, and you can tell that they love what they do. There's always someone to talk to during difficult times, and their assistance in helping students transition from high school to college is outstanding. Not only is academic growth nurtured at the school, but the staff also encourages social interaction with various clubs and student events. Even with e-learning, Sickles did everything in their power to make sure every student was prepared and supported, regardless of outside circumstances. The only thing I would change about the school is the physical environment. At times, our bathrooms went without paper towels or soap, and some students were seen littering. But these issues are fixable, and I know Sickles will prioritize items that students care about!
Sickles High School was an overall good high school experience. On top of the nice collection of classes, there’s plenty of clubs and sports activities for students to participate in. They really focus on college readiness, with AP classes, which is a bonus as well. It’s a really good school choice!
The school was overall very clearly focused on appearances- appearing modern, appearing caring, etc. In reality I didn’t have a single teacher that genuinely enjoyed working at the school and the school did not care about the students mental health. Students crying in the bathroom are told to see the administration that are entirely unfriendly and ill equipped to help students or to or else get back to class. The guidance is clueless about dual enrollment and college applications and is overall extremely unhelpful. There are definitely worse high schools out there but this one is definitely up there as far as bad ones go.
