I started Jesse bethel high school in the middle of my sophom*ore year. I missed the first semester of my sophom*ore year due to mental health, so coming to a new school with the possibility of having to renew it was my worst experience. Fortunately, I was able to obtain all the credits I missed doing edgenuity, which I finished in 2 weeks. That is one of my best experiences, another great experience was meeting new people, and having the opportunity to grow.

I had the best four years at Jesse Bethel high school. The diversity amongst the staff and students weren’t like any school I have been to. The teachers were very straight forward with curriculum, always willing to lend a helping hand and overall amazing people. The only concern I had were the ongoing fights amongst the students.

Jesse Bethel has been a pretty mediocre school. Through my four years of attendance I have gotten very far and used all the resources provided to the best of my ability, with little help. There are many improvements to the school that should be considered but it is not a bad place when you have a positive mindset.
