I like Southern High School and the opportunities it has provided me education-wise. I believe that the teachers and faculty are very helpful and really want to see their students succeed. The principal is the best of the administrators as she is very helpful and always tried to make deep and meaningful connections with all of her students. One thing that I feel could use some change is inclusion. I feel that sometimes individuals may feel ostracized if they do not feel included in classes, extracurriculars, or sports.
Southern is a great school with a variety of students, there are parts that are a little dated but nothing too bad. The teachers are great and form good relationships with students. It is a close nit community and a great place to learn!
Southern High School was an average experience for me because of the culture difference between them and where I came from in Florida. Southern High School has a good agricultural department, but other than that, there wasn’t really much else to offer within the extensions of other departments.
