By Jordan P. from Eureka High School in California

“I definitely feel that there could’ve been some changes made. A more structured schedule. I wasn’t a huge fan of the three classes a day compared to all six because as far as I went, in my experience it seemed like when you’re doing an hour and a half to two hours in one class, you get really really bored. And you don’t pay attention.”
