“The first six weeks here were really overwhelming,” junior Bella Neil said. “Everything was new, but it was also comforting because I knew a lot of people here. I started online school in fifth grade. With online, I was more organized, because I have my own schedule. I like high school more, because I get to see everyone every day. In a way, I have become a lot more independent because of high school. My favorite thing about high school is the people, being around everybody, being able to hang out after school. I was nervous, but the people here are so kind.”
