I graduated several years ago. I had all advanced classes and I worked my behind off!!! I probably went home and studied about 4 hours a night. It was worth it, though. I earned a scholarship and went to college for free!

I had a wonderful experience at American. They have great A.P. and accelerated programs. I made solid friendships. The kids who look for trouble find it, but those who really want an education, achieve it.

I had a wonderful experience at this school and my teachers were very organized, effective, and "with-it".

You were NOT a student at American Senior High School and I was NOT your teacher. Your have FOUR run-on sentences and that would have been impossible after taking my course. Patriots do NOT talk bad about each other or their school.

I would like to respond to the teacher who responded earlier. Please, don't insult students when you can't even teach. I had you for a class and it was a nightmare, our entire class filed complaints against you because you managed to upset every student and this is coming from a student you actually liked. Anyway, on the topic of the school. I was a student here from 2007 to 2011, I have very mixed feelings about this school. They have many teachers that are terrible, but have some that genuinely care and the memories I have of the good ones will follow me throughout my life, such as how the memories of the terrible ones will also haunt me and I bring them up whenever I want to tell a funny story to people. It really is a ridiculous school now that I think of it. It was ridiculous, but I enjoyed it for the most part. :)
