Abilene High School is a great place to go to enroll your children at for good education and athletics. Abilene has a well structured and supportive learning program and is currently excelling in many sports.

Hello, I went to Abilene since my seventh grade year. Abilene is the. place where I was able to get the help that I needed for dyslexia. That is what made this school so dear to me, and made it heartbreaking when I was forced to leave it. Being stated, as always. There are some flaws in this school, the food being one of them. But another is how much gossip is around, teachers can't control that. But this is a small town gossip is normal but I know that many people will gossip behind your back for no reason. Athletics is really important here as always, but for those who don't. I did Debate, Choir, and Forensics. Its not so much important as it should be. I wish that culture would change.

Some teachers didn't care to be there, but others really strived to help students and were passionate about their subjects. The district was constantly putting sports, specifically boys sports, over the arts, classes, and other extra curricular activities.

I have nothing but great things to say about the school in Abilene. I am new to town, and have two special needs students in two buildings. My experiences with the teachers and the principals have been very good. They have been very willing to work with my kids and have gone out of their way to help...

I would have to agree with the parent who posted on 8-4-09. There is not much support for kids who are not what the school considers to be ideal. Quite the opposite happens and students who are different are too often discouraged instead of encouraged. I gave two stars for "teacher quality" only bec...

Overall I saw a willingness for teachers to help my students. They worked to make them accountable for themselves and most set respectable expectations. A small town is quick to gossip and make their own judgements-right or wrong they are tough to change. The teachers may be strong in union, but don...
