Public School System in West Roxbury

All my life have attended private school, because I have never had the opportunity to attend a public school. I never had the opportunity to attend a public school in elementary school because, I did not get into any of the public school systems. As I graduated elementary school I applied to the public schools to see If I would get accepted, even though I would probally have ended up at Mount Alvernia any ways because my older sister was here. But I did not get accepted into any of the exam schools, this did not bring me down. However something that bothers me is that I have a High school in my own town yet it is still hard for me to be able to attend there. I wish I had the chance to attend the High school in my own town as well as my friends wish =I could attend that school. We all feel that it would be a very fun and good experience if all of us could attend a school with all the kids that are from my hometown. Do not get me wrong I love it here I just feel that my friend that are from my own town have grown apart because we all attend different schools, and it would be a good experience if we had the opportunity to all share the same high school experience.
