There are different academic opportunities for the students to pursuit- interested in the sciences? The school's got Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Astronomy, Forensic Sciences, etc etc. Interested in the arts? Got multiple orchestras, various focuses in the arts (both traditional and digital), theater opportunities, etc.
IB oriented but students may opt to not take IB as well as the option to participate in BOCES which allows for students to learn about professions outside of the standard school curriculum.
Many of the teachers genuinely wants to help and encourages you to reach out to them for anything.
Various clubs ranging from the arts (Photography, Yearbook, Art, etc) to the academics (American Sign Language, Spanish, Military History, etc)

Overall, my experience in South Side High School was positive. Engaging classes, good teachers, and some great after-school clubs!
Throughout my time at South Side High School, I was presented with many unique and enticing opportunities. The classes that I took were college level and allowed me to experience what I would be going up against in a college environment. I enjoyed participating in extracurricular's such as Cross Country and Track and Field which allowed me to build bonds with my fellow peers and teachers. I'm sure that when I leave South Side for good in 2022, I will feel that I am ready to take on the world.
