This School’s Reviews
Niche Reviews
7/12/2024
During my time at Building 21 highschool, my experiences weren't horrible or great. I loved my teachers and I had perfect grades. The negative part of this school was the lack of clubs and sports, It was also underfunded. The state doesn't care much about this school as much as they care about the larger High schools in the area. Administration is great and does care about students and staff.
10/8/2019
As a former student, I would like Building 21 to add theater classes or do play productions like the other high schools in the area and I would like for them to improve on their learning academics.
