Simley is a school that most schools should look up to in some ways. The learning strategies, help offers, and beautiful diversity. So many classes or programs to take to hit a reachable amount of credits and learn skills. And cannot forget the helpful teachers there for their students understand what they have to learn, and not for their own benefit of just collecting an income. Most are pretty funny and actually caring.
The school does very well in how they deliver their teachings, however the school does have some issues, including the way their financial priorities, because their food and bathrooms could use an upgrade. I wish they could focus on the student's mental health a bit more, as most are challenged with heavy homework most days. A few more counselors would do. I would say these issues is not untypical for a public school.
Simley High School is a school I will never forget. Have made so many memories, more than half of being good. I believe the school is excellent.

Simley High School has a lot of academic oppertunities but my personal favorite one is AVID. AVID helps a lot of students such as me help stay organized and be prepared for college. Another great thing about Simley is the staff each staff member brings something different to the school community. Each staff member has a different personality and teaching style witch really helps the students in many different ways. Simley has a lot of different progrmas for student to explore and be apart of something bigger than themselves. The programs helps student connect with one another on a different level. The staff makes sure students are getting the best help and resources that they can get, the staff really goes above and beyond to provide student with a lot of different resources to be successful.
My experience at Simley High School has been overall outstanding. I am impressed by the high quality teaching and happy with the overall learning experience that I have gotten from my school. I truly believe that my teachers want me to be successful and strive for their students to be prepared and ready for college. I am very thankful for all the staff and all their support one our journey before college and the real world. If I were to change anything it would be to provide students with additional classes that inform students regarding taxes and other business type bases that prepare them for balancing money and jobs, that is something that Simley lacks. Although they do provide many alternative classes and ap college courses, I would add different electives for students who are preparing for their lives and want to be knowledgeable about other things.
