Wichita High School South Reviews
Rating 3.6 out of 5 174 reviews
I have had a great experience at Wichita South High School. I have been on special assignment so that I could join the dual-credit Computer/IT Technology college pathway. All of my teachers have been helpful and understanding and I especially credit Mr. Eberl for being a great mentor to me. I also believe the principal, Mr. Travis Rogers cares about the students. I honestly have no poor experiences with South High or the education I have received. I am looking forward to graduation in May 2024!
Coming into my last year of High School and first year at South High, I have had alot of great experiences with the staff and teachers. South High teachers are not the ones to catch you slacking off, they motivate their students to stay on top of their work, and studies as well as growing a special relationship with students and helping them in further more things. Overall I enjoy being a South High student, it brings me tears knowing that I will lose such an impressive community of teachers, staff and students.
Attending South High all for years has been an experience that I will always carry with me. I have gotten the privilege to meet and befriend some of the most astounding people. The friendship and memories that I have created there will forever be an important part of my life as they all helped me get to where I stand today.
