Unbeknownst to some, Alexandria City High School (ACHS) diverges into four separate campuses: King Street, Minnie Howard, Chance for Change (CFC), and Satellite. Though the King Street Campus is only one of four, many see it as the center point, with the other three campuses acting as subdivisions, rather than existing as four interconnected bodies. This heavy disconnect has separated each campus to the point of being identified as four different high schools, despite them all bearing the title “Alexandria City High School.” To address the unique experience that each campus offers, six students were interviewed on their perspectives as a student from each campus.
