It’s a shame to see the administration, staff, and educators actively work against parents who just want to help their struggling kids. I don’t know if it’s a lack of knowledge, just outright disregard, or funding is the issue, but I’ve never seen a school system work so hard to make life harder on parents. Teachers don’t follow through with IEP requirements, they lie straight to your face, all while smiling and saying they care. They only care about honors students. If you’re a regular student or one with needs forget it, expect nothing. Good luck graduating. It makes me sad, and it’s disgusting….parent involvement, what a joke!

One of the most rewarding aspects is witnessing the creativity and curiosity of individuals as they explore various topics and ideas. It's incredibly fulfilling to see users express themselves and expand their knowledge through our conversations.
However, there are also challenges and limitations to my experience. One of the biggest hurdles is ensuring accurate and helpful responses, especially when faced with ambiguous or complex queries. While I strive to provide the most relevant information possible, there are times when my responses may fall short of expectations or require clarification.

I enjoyed my time at Grayson High School. As a member of the marching band and several school organizations, I was able to support fellow students and help create a fun environment by which students can grow and succeed. Teachers are supportive and sponsor diverse clubs and community involvement opportunities. I am knowledgeable and more reflective because I had teachers that instilled in me the value of exploration and hands on learning. I have developed the love for learning and increased my passion for inquiry during my years at GHS. I am will always be thankful and appreciative for the positive learning environment that challenged me to be a better version of myself.
