Staples High School Reviews
Rating 4.19 out of 5 240 reviews
Staples High School is a unique school, with a variety of cultures, clubs, classes, and experiences. There are multiple electives that students are able to take based on their interests, as well as an organized and thought-out plan for post-high school life, and counseling throughout your experience. The best parts of Staples would most likely be the diversity in classes and how much I was able to learn, varying from Middle East Studies to film and literature critique. These miniscule yet vital classes have helped grow my horizons and keep me curious. Despite this, I would like to see more diversity in the school, as well as an emphasis on different cultures and the importance of them. I feel there is a lack of communication regarding the backgrounds and lifestyles most students in Staples have, and would like to see more of that.
During my time at staples, I enjoyed the company of my teachers and peers while also being able to have fun while maintaining my grades.
Staples High School provides a safe learning environment for its students. The resources, faculty, facilities, clubs, and sports are all top-of-the-line.
