Southern Wayne High School was a high school that was extremely diverse. It was made up of about 5 different middle schools who all collectively went to Southern Wayne. This meant new people and new friends. Each schools brought its own personalities which then molded into one big family. This was by far my favorite part. The only thing I would change is the atmosphere. The buildings are extremely old which meant there were some mild issues regarding temperature control and it sometimes caused people's allergies to flare up because there was some mold. But my overall experience was amazing and I was sad to go. Due to Covid-19, I missed some of the big moments in that school. I may be a graduate but it'll always be home. Go Saints!
Southern Wayne High School is an average high school with many opportunities and choices. There are many classes within science, math, business, and health.
One thing that I wish that could improve at Southern Wayne is the volunteering in advanced leveled classes such as AP and Honors classes. There’s usually good lunch and breakfast, great teachers, and many clubs that you can join.

I'm currently a Junior at Southern Wayne High School, and what I like most about this school is the opportunities that it offers. There are so many clubs, and different sports to be involved in. For example, if your futur consists of teaching, then you can be apart of FTA (Future Teacher of America), and this club will provide service projects and great experiences to help prepare for your future plans. Teachers at Southern Wayne really care about seeing their student achieve greatness in their class, other classes, and in life. Southern Wayne is a great school, and I recommend it to anyone who needs somewhere that will prepare them for college, and life outside of school.
