After attending Williamsport High School for the past four years one major problem that I personally experienced were the classes itself; by not providing enough extracurricular classes it restricted my creativity and the ability to think for myself. The school strictly based their curriculum on the four subjects: math, English, social studies, and science instead of prioritizing all classes. Adding classes would be an appropriate change to the system; classes that would interest students into what they like to do would help define who they are and who they want to be. Classes that involve what would be valuable to know for the future would benefit us all into feeling more prepared to get out in the 'real world'. Classes such as finance where you can learn how to complete taxes would be a prime example of this. As a graduate from this school, having these changes would bring an advantage to all students and assure them confidence in life outside of high school.
I loved Williamsport, mainly because of the atmosphere in the community. When football season was around, everyone in the community gathered around to cheer on the Wildcats and it was always incredibly exciting. Even if our team wasn’t doing too great, we would always be there supporting them on their journey. Baseball season was even modern popular; we even made it to the State Champsionships! It all couldn’t have been done without the support of the community.
I would like for there to be a better sense of a community considering Williamsport is a small town and the town itself has very close connection within itself. The schools has great teachers and tries to do fun activities for the students like rewards for the good-standing students. It’s a somewhat clean school but the students aren’t that engaged by choice.
