I currently go to Kerr high school. It's draining. It's hard. It's even made me suicidal. I've always been the smart girl but at Kerr i feel dumb. It lowers your standards of your self. Ex: If I had ever failed anything in middle school it would have been a mistake. But, at Kerr you shake it of because your used to failing test and most people around you failed it too. But I will say the students at Kerr except everyone, no matter what. We're sweet to others (especially new kids) no questions asked. No body is excluded everyone has a group. Clubs are awesome, and we're active in the community. Making friends is a breeze. Teachers don't baby you, your free to listen to music in fact most people bring their laptops and tablets to school, Our school Embraces technology. You can make it at Kerr, it just has to be the right school for you. Close Quote
