School's been a wild ride. From crayons to calculus, it's been a journey of highs and lows. Made friends, aced tests, faced challenges. Stressful at times, but also rewarding. Teachers inspired me, friendships formed, lessons learned. Now, on the brink of graduation, feeling excited and nervous about what's next. But grateful for the memories and growth.

My years in Arleta High School have been very great. I've made many fond memories throughout the campus. The teachers there enjoy teaching which really motivates the students to learn. As for changes, I believe that the school could have more teachers so that the class size isn't excessive.
