Some of the best experiences came from Elementary School, but the worst was easily Junior High. Some of the teachers did not really care enough about teaching and the students made it hard to focus and to make friends. One specific teacher at the Advanced Learning Center is not good. Overall, the Advanced Learning Center is awesome because the teachers teach in a more engaging way and the classes are way better for me.

When a new student comes into the community and school, students who have been there all their lives tend to be a little hard to get to know. Schools seem to be very "cliquey " which makes it tough to make friends. We have also seen a good bit of bullying in I-I schools. Teachers should be more aware and concerned about what goes on both in the classroom and the playgrounds! Some shy kids are too afraid to speak up, especially about bullying or "not wearing what everyone else wears". It is time for schools to step up and pay attention!

I would like to see the cafeteria food changed in Monroe County and also the way we learn. I would like us to have one on one time with teachers so everyone can learn. While right now we do not have any one on one time and also we do not all learn at the same pace so most children get left behind.
