Roselawn High School was not always a high school. Roselawn started off as a one room elementary house that was located on Roselawn Ave. Hence the name “Roselawn High School.” It was generously donated by farmers over 100 years ago. Now, Roselawn welcomes the majority of juniors and seniors, but back then when it was first turned into a high school it served sophomores as well. In 2020, when we were all taken back by the famous Covid-19, Roselawn received its new home, 350 North Kilory.
Roselawn High is not your typical high school. Roselawn High is a place where you are able to accomplish your goals, whatever they may be. I started at Roselawn because I had a baby in sophomore year of high school so I was at Pitman for a little bit after my baby was born. It was pretty stressful and hard because I went to school for 8 hours everyday and the teachers weren't really helpful at all. It seemed like they didn't really care if you passed or not. I was failing a lot of my classes there because the classes were hard and the teachers weren't very engaged with us students. I decided to switch to Roselawn to try it out and it was the best decision ever. I love being a student here at Roselawn.
There is so much help provided and it's a very small school where everyone gets along with everyone. All of the teachers here at Roselawn are very understanding and nice, this is the first school I've been to that feels like a family. There are always positive vibes at this school and that's what keeps me motivated to come every day and try my best. I love volleyball and we had started a volleyball team here and went to tournaments with other schools. It was so much fun I loved it. It was a very rewarding experience to be on the team. I took advantage and tried my best while at the tournament.
Overall I would definitely recommend Roselawn High School for any kid who does like school because being here at this school changes your perspective on school and it's not that stressful when you're here you just have a good time and make bonds with the teachers. Schools nowadays for us students is becoming draining and that's why kids aren't going to school and failing their classes. I was one of those students before I had a baby and had no choice but to push myself because I can't let myself fail. I would feel so guilty if I just let myself fail knowing I'm a mom.
Thankfully I came to Roselawn because my life would be so much harder if I were to go to a regular eight hour high school where the teachers don't care about their students they just do their job which is teaching. Another plus about being at Roselawn High school is that it is possible to graduate early that's literally the best thing you can ask for is to graduate early and here at Roselawn you can make it happen.
