Overall my experience at Sheridan High School is pretty good. There are opportunities that the school provides such as having the chance to take college classes not only online but at high school. One of these college classes that is provided at the high school is Intro to Public Speaking and English 1010 which gets two English credits out of the way. What I would like to see change is some of the AP classes we have. I would rather have them be a class which you will get college credit out of even if you do not pass the AP exam.

I love the school but I find it difficult to do the majority of my studies due to everything being blocked on the school computers. I personally cannot afford to get my own computer so I either have to manage with the school supplied computers or use my cell phone.
