Robertsdale High School

It is a great school. Every school has a few bad apples. I am very happy at Robertsdale High.

The school has a lot of positive attributes such as a great NJROTC program with Colonel Meehan and Theo guiding these Cadets to be better all around students. For resource I must give a shout out to Larissa Goodrich. She truly cares and works very hard to help her students achieve their fullest potential. There are several teachers who go above and beyond for their students. I will also give a shout out to coach Strain who pushes the wrestling team to do their best at everything and to work together as a team. The few not so motivated leaders and teachers at this school need to dig a little deeper, work a little harder, follow, and enforce policy across the board with ALL students being treated equally. These situations happen at top rated schools too, but, should not happen anywhere. The students should also do their part in making Robertdale a top rated school. If every student did all of their work, studied, asked for help, and have 100 % I believe our schools scores would be way higher.We love Robertsdale High.

I graduated from RHS in 2004 and the Honors diploma (now offered as the Distinction Diploma) more than prepared me for classes on the university level. Robertsdale may not be an IB school, but it does offer 5 AP courses, advanced science and math courses, and at the time I was attending 3 levels of either Spanish or French (my friends' schools only offered 2 levels). Electives offered included forensic science, law courses, computer programing, web design, model UN, music, and art classes. Teachers were always willing to help and offer advice. RHS still offers clubs for various interests, including service, academic, religious, and political. I enjoyed my years at RHS, took advantage of the more challenging courses and activities, and was successful at my university because of it.

I went to Robertsdale High School and am the graduating class of 2007, and I must say that I was given a fair education, not stellar but not horrible either. The school is more concerned with the sports teams than trying to become an IB school, I feel that I was not challenged enough as a student and I also feel that they need to improve and expand upon their foreign language programs. The staff was very accepting and accomodating, although I feel that the discussions in class turned into a religious debate or a morality debate far more than is acceptable in a public school system, all in all I must say that I received a fair education.
