Wellesley High School has state-of-the-art facilities that provide an ideal environment for learning, contributing significantly to my overall educational experience. The school system provided a ground for forging long-lasting relationships. Engaging in extracurricular activities and clubs further facilitated the formation of connections that extended beyond the confines of the classroom.
One of the pivotal outcomes of my time at Wellesley High School was the effective preparation it provided for college. The teachers and counselors provided the necessary guidance to build the skills and knowledge that helped with the challenges of higher education. Most of my teachers were proficient in their subjects and ignited intellectual curiosity in me. Students were provided platforms for meaningful discussions on diversity and inclusion. There could be some improvement in the number of AP courses offered. Overall, It helped me forge a pivotal chapter in my life.

It's good, the teachers are good, the school is nice, kept in good condition. Education varies however, depending on the teachers. Sometimes there are teachers who give you a decent workload and actually teach and engage the class, but there are other teachers who give way too much work and expect us to know everything and a handful of teachers that do the exact opposite--give no work, don't teach the class, and we don't learn anything. That happened with my English during Sophomore year
The teachers here are very qualified but my only complaint is the standard based grading system. It's still very new to me so sometimes I feel that different teachers have different standards so the grade I get on an assignment confuses me sometimes.
