I experienced Sehome High School just as it opened it's new campus and facilities. We moved into the school sometime between the winter and spring. Overall, the teachers were nice and taught the subjects well. The teachers seemed to know what they were doing and I thought they generally graded the assignments fairly.
Compared to a college schedule, the breaks between classes and lunch period are restrictive. Some teachers were overly strict about how long someone "should" take to go the bathroom. I would prefer more time between classes, especially going from a gym class.

Sehome high school has provided me several ups and downs. Our school lacks diversity, and the treatment from admin is subpar. However, the brand new building contains teachers of quality, and positive learning environments exist in the right spaces.
The staff and people are very well trained and always have resources available to help people in need. However, school spirit is low and discussion about real-world events is limited.
