I spent only my senior year at the North Providence High School but I spent K-3 in the North Providence school district. Compared to where I spent grades 3 through 11, North Providence lacked in diversity. They however did have a better educational system and I learned a lot more there in the one year I spent at high school than I did in the 8 years I spent living in Pawtucket, RI. They have a better outreach when it comes to kids who struggle with learning and they also have a better college prep program than my last high school. They have a lot more oppurtunities when it comes to being in sports and a lot more clubs than a lot of high schools.

North Providence High School has amazing faculty members who are very supportive and help you build yourself up. The school also offers pathways for students who are determined to take the career, like healthcare, engineering, law, business, marine-tech etc. It has opportunities open to all students and everyone can show off their skills.

My experience in North Providence, high school has been, one for the books. For me, it started with Covid I spent half of my freshman year at home and then then my sophom*ore year, going back and forth between distance-learning, and in person learning, I missed out on dances games, school events and a lot of other things that most normal high school experiences consist of. From a really young age i have suffered from anxiety and ADHD. And to say that has made school hard for me is understatement. I struggled with focusing getting things done on time being able to go to school getting out of bed, etc. Aside from all of this, I have pushed through all my difficulties to make something of myself I have passed all of my classes with that 80 or above. I am now in AP classes and committed to the University of Rhode Island while in all of this success, my anxiety and ADHD still exists but because of North Providence high school I have succeeded in so many ways I never thought possible
