I think that besides the school being not as new it is a great place to attend. The students get along with each other for the most part. The teachers are mostly nice and I have gotten a great education out of this school.

I attended FCHS for all four years of my high school career. It was a pleasant experience with some downsides.

Over the past 4 years at First Colonial, there has never been a time where I felt unsafe. The school's administration is extremely caring and intuitive toward student's needs. I have been able to develop good relationships with teachers and administration to the point where I can go to them whenever I need advice. First Colonial has been a great place to grow and advance my education while creating unforgettable friendships and memories.

I am a recent graduate. I wish I had never gone to this school. To say that this place broke me and left me worse off is an understatement. I lost any passion I had for education, nor do I know what path I want to take at all. I wish I had been homeschooled or gone to a private school. I'd likely be...
