seneca high school has changed in both good and bad ways ... but were headed in the right direction DO IT THE RED HAWK WAY

The walls are covered in school-sponsored political statements in every leftist opinion you could think of. While this in itself is no problem the school directly blocks any opinions they disagree with from the walls of their school when they ask the children to design posters. The school suffers from various budget cuts and removes educational classes (at least as educational as a class at Highland can be) but at the same time they hire four new mental health counselors, purchase three new flat screens for the cafeteria, spends more on vegetarian options for lunch, as well as clubs and sports that lose the school money. They speak of discrimination but have many female-only sports and clubs, including a new addition to for these children called; "Girl Group" where any student who has XX chromosomes can stop school work fifty minutes early to discuss women's rights and how they are marginalized by this institution that has taken a dark path. I myself went to this school and want the best for it.

My son had to transfer to Cochran part of the way through his first grade year because of some problems at his previous school, and the Cochran community was supportive and kind to him from day one. The school is truly a community, he was accepted and shown love from the kids right up front. He had special connections with his teachers- I felt that they saw him for the individual he is and appreciated him. Anytime I had an issue the administration was responsive and helpful. Great school, would recommend to anyone.
