We had a new building, lively sports culture, high-achieving academics, clubs filled with a sense of community, and thriving arts programs. Those came to a halt when a town property tax override failed to pass. A large number of teachers across the district were cut, we lost a multitude of electives, and sports fees will increase tremendously ($1000 for football and hockey for example). It has been a devastating blow to many students who found solace in extracurricular programing. Many alumni relied on these activities for college admissions, scholarships, and maintaining a sense of belonging in the difficult time that is high school. That being said many students take AP exams and score relatively well. What I would love to see is an increase in the school budget, however that isn't something solely school administration is responsible for.

When I first started at Minnechaug, due to covid, I lost touch with my friends and didn't have many people I could trust. Now, I have a loyal group of friends who do everything together. The downside to this heavy inclusiveness, unlike other regional high schools in the Massachusetts area, there isn't a separate Junior and Senior prom. I say this especially because the homecoming fails to meet the formalities and fun of a dress coded theme. The school effectively brings all four grades together; however, this often results in a lack of unity within the grades themselves. Despite the criticism, Minnechaug succeeds in its goal, it constantly encourages students to go "all in". Those in this community strive to graduate with a wide social network, a pocket full of opportunities through a variety of clubs and a high bar of expectations....

It is what you make of it, as most things in life are. One of the things I would like to see a change in is just the overall building. It feels very old, no carpets, not much life, just bland and boring. I would also like to see a change to the food as it is definitely not the greatest. I have had mostly a good experience with teachers and students. Although I think some teachers need to help their students better as each one struggles with a different thing, and no two people are the same. Such as new or different teaching strategies. I think the school spirit is amazing, especially on game nights and we even recently started a Mansfield morning news which was pretty funny.

For example, there are many different business classes, science classes, and art classes. The teachers are friendly and knowledgeable in the different classes they teach.

They have opportunities that appeal to very academic students, artistic students, athletic students, and those who fall in between. They make an effort to provide a welcoming environment for everyone. However, there is less diversity due to Billerica being more of a rural town.

This school has amazing funding, but I strongly believe that the mental health resources at the middle school level are lacking. The fact that there isn't much of a guidance counselor's department at the middle school made opening up about my severe mental health issues difficult. The culture here isn't great either. I am a Southeast Asian hailing from Roxbury--20 miles away from this suburb--and much of the gossip, toxicity, and elitism at this high school was shocking. A lot of the children (mostly white and east asian) here fail to realize they can use their privilege and power as a tool, so they go off to elite universities without much intent to make positive social change.

North Andover High is a great school to meet new people and get to know yourself and find a place you belong in.

The time set aside for that class could be used in a better way to help students, especially regarding their future when it comes to plans after high school.
