Teachers are the best.The school will not only break you out of your shy shell, but they will prepare you for college or any future endeavours. It's easy to have a heard voice, parents are always in the loop, and they develop you from a child to a young adult.

My Experience with Rosenwald was a life changing experience i learned that even people who are located inside of the school can be your family too and I say this because at Rosenwald it allowed me to be comfortable with myself and comfortable to other things . Any School activity we do is fun such as spirit week which i love with a passion because you can really see people true selves and i find it awesome. But it doesn't change the fact our school inst being much noticed even with the outstanding things we do . like we have been put inside of other schools building to learn in which we shouldn't because we deserve our own building also . Which causes people to look down on us because we dont get the same resources other school receive which is unfair and i will love to change that . My school deserves every resource any other school gets because we deserve it and i love my school .
