This school has been the worst school that I have ever been to, and I have been to more than six schools. This is the least welcoming school, and almost impossible to make friends unless you do dumb things for people to laugh about. The counselors do not care about whether you have a problem or not because they have too many kids to deal with. The school has so many things happening in a month that they can't deal with them in a proper way. Every few weeks, there is a lockdown because something happens. I have never had to walk outside to get to my classes at any other school, and I walk about 4,000 steps each day just to get there. They cannot figure out the transportation system; my bus stop has changed, and my bus is running for no good reason. The worst part is just the hour-long bus ride in the afternoons. I have to wake up at 6:00 a.m. to barely make it on the bus. I have only had a fw decnt days, and those were mainly at the beginning of the school year. I sit alone at lunch each day; nobody allows me to sit at their table or invites me to. But I understand some of these things are just part of high school. I should have gone to Park Hill High School because I am 20 minutes closer to there than away from Platte County.
