"I use to be a student in this school & honestly every school has there ups and down. Its not the teachers, counselors or even security guards job. I graduated w/ honors and went to a great school. I did it on my own every kid needs to make the best of the school. The way I did."

"I am a student at the school an I truely do not believe that the school is as terrible and as a threat as every one makes it seem. Yes there are some students who are disrespectful and rude but the few students who act this way os not an example of all of us. Outsiders act like the students at the school are alway violent towards each other, which isnt true. 90 percent of the fight and argument that happen are resolved with the help of parents and staff members. I think people should worry more about the killings that is going on around the world, and not the minor fights and argument going on in side of Wells."

"In my opinion we have great teachers at Wells High School and they are putting their life on the line as well as the students that are there to get an education. If there are disruptive students it is only because their parent's let them get away with it."
