Buena is a nice school that pushing us to be better and to improve ourself and prepare us for what college will be. The school is decent, the best but not the worst, there's always the bad days of school and that can be seen within the teachers that are hired. However, they do have a variety of different classes, clubs and resources to help students that need it. I would like to see in improvement of finding the right teachers and for them to listen to their students a little more.

I had access to a lot of clubs and the ability to take classes in subjects I was really interested in like dance. I enjoyed my extracurriculars but wished teachers had more diversity training.

Buena high school is overall just another basic school that people go to, its not perfect but neither is it hell. I think that Buena high school is one of does schools that its not much special but its still a decent school.
