    Everything seems pretty much average about our school. Good teachers good students. Big deal about sports. I will admit though, marching band and the spring musical are also things that many students support and look forward to. The schoolwork can be challenging. But, my counselor is very helpful.
    Overall, my experience at Whitehall High School was one of the most unforgettable. The school here is very diverse and brings many people of different backgrounds and religions. The students are very involved in their academics and try so hard to achieve the best level possible. The time I spent at this school cannot be replaced. The teachers make sure that each student is included, and they try their best to give students a great high school experience throughout the years. All of my memories at Whitehall High School will be cherished as I move into the future.
