Tuesday, May 31, 2016

I went to Hedgesville Middle School for 8th Grade and enjoyed it very much. I had transferred from Saint Josephs School, which I attended for the majority of my schooling career. The transition from private to public school was not difficult. The teachers are so kind and caring compared to that of my other school. The majority of the students were respectful towards me. I must say a very nice school and I'm glad I was able to have attended it.
PS. Team H rocked! Close Quote
