This is my first year at Ada high school. I am a senior this year, whom just moved from Bartlesville Oklahoma which is a huge difference 6A to 4A high school. I would like to say it is so much more involved with the community, and the kids are very welcoming. I observed that the teachers here strive to meet the kids needs and readiness for educational as well as personal.

I attended Ada High and found the school to be a great school. I felt very well prepared for college and had no problem with the transition from high school to college academically. Sports (football) is overemphasized but brings the entire school together. I now have 2 kids and I wouldn't send them...

Seriously... This site had Ada rated at an 8 and Latta at a 7. I moved both of my kids from Ada to Latta. One was struggling simple because she had teachers who did not care. The other was an 'AP' student. At Latta the one who was AP works to keep an A/B average. The one who was struggling got the h...
