Corcoran High school was not the best experience or education that I have received as a student. Something they can improve would be to improve the way some teachers teach there. Also the school does not seem very welcoming. Although that does not affect the education part, it is important to make kids feel welcomed. Most of the staff members look at students mad and do not give us a smile. The school would be a better place if these things were changed.

Corcoran High School is a hopeful place where students from low backgrounds can find the opportunity to reach success in their lives. The facilities here are always thinking about innovation to make this schools a better place for students. This is where students can find success and it may be in their academics, personal growth, or even both. What is best about this school is the healthy relationships that students have with their teachers. This school turns no student down and the teachers here do their best to ensure the success in every student. I have always heard my teachers telling my class about how they will take time after school to dedicate themselves with struggling students. This is what makes Corcoran High a great school. It may not be the best school, but I firmly believe that the students definitely have the right resources to make it to their dream career.

The school offers many great classes and works with surrounding colleges to offer their students the ability to dual enroll and earn college credits in high school. Most of the teachers and administration at this school are amazing and go out of their way to help students with any issue they may have. Although the school offers many sports, this particular school is not really known for being good at sports. Corcoran High school is a great place for a high school student to grow, meet new people, and find new friends.
