Despite a negative connotation from the neighboring districts, Schenectady High School can be a simply amazing place to learn, If you know where to find the available resources, rather than wallowing in the drug abuse, fighting, and other problems that this district is a home to. The student body is one of the most diverse and beautiful in the area, and is filled dedicated students who love their school, and for the most part the teachers are kind and attentive to student's needs.

Even with all of it's issues this school is severely underrated and a thoroughly wonderful place of education if you put in as much effort as you want to get out.
