My school goes above and beyond. Mr. Price is by far the best principal I have ever had. he always makes the students feel welcomed and accepted. I love the POWER schedule and all the time we have to study and catch up on whatever we need to or just hang out with friends after all the work is done. South Johnston High School is one of the best schools to go to because of the many opportunities and extra curricular activities offered. I wouldn't want to be anything else besides a SJHS Trojan!
