    I transferred to St. Peter High School my ninth-grade year. The overall atmosphere of the school is pretty cliquey. I mean, you're bound to have friends, but there is an underlying understanding of who the popular kids are, even if no one says anything. The teachers, for the most part, are fantastic. A lot of them care about you as a person and a student. This school puts a lot of emphasis on sports and theater, even their sports teams aren't good at all. I mean, for instance, in boys soccer, they have varsity play JV games, so the JV boys can't play their games. The counselors are not the best. There's one for the entire school and she is really bad at keeping up with each and every student. I think all my meetings with her have lasted 5 minutes at the most. If you don't know where you want to go for college or what you want to do, you're better off doing research on your own or even asking a teacher than asking the school counselor.

    Its an amazing school with amazing teachers! Saint peter high school has opportunities for everyone. The community is also wonderful and everyone supports everyone.
    I had a good experience here. Like, yeah there’s always going to be pricks and drama because it is a public school, but it’s not the worse public school. Food’s okay, most teachers are fantastic and want you to learn, and the resources are above average. They do emphasize a lot more on sports and theater than the band and choir(budget cuts). Principle is kind of a fake person, but mostly eh to me. I personally think the only thing that really sucks here is the counselor because there’s only one for the entire 9-12 grades and they suck at their job tbh. Other than that, nothing anyone can’t deal with.
