High School Memories

The high school I went to was Sierra high school in Manteca California. The high school itself would be considered in the country of California due to all of the farms and cows in the area. There was actually cows right across the street from the school. Sierra high's education system was great. It is very intolerable toward bad grades as well as bad behavior. You do have to bring your A game when it came to education. The administration office is very supportive. They are all very laid back until you get in trouble that first time. For me I had it good because all the administrators loved me. As far as the atmosphere, the campus is always clean as well as the green trees and the flowers around the school. The school gets pretty descent books and computers. The students however were good and bad. We had some trying to claim gangs but usually they don't last long due to the tolerance level of the administrative department being at zero. But the ones that were great students were always acknowledge for that fact.

  1. How do you think the rural setting influenced the school environment? Do you think you would have developed differently in a much more urban school? In my experience a zero tolerance policy can be a double-edged sword as it can sometimes limit how people perceive an issue. Would you say that such a policy is more beneficial or less?

  2. I feel that all schools should be this way maybe that dropout rates wouldn’t be this low in California. When administration steps in and has a very low tolerance for bad behavior the school seems to run more smoothly. I wish my school would have been the same way then maybe people wouldn’t have such a bad perception on my school.
