My experience here at Anton High School has been really good. Teachers push students to do their best in their school work and I have learned to be a mature adult. I have gone threw tough times with school work but every teacher is willing to be there to help you out with the problem and encourage me to keep going and not quit.

The school dress code is still enforced. Students are not allowed to work tank tops, short shorts, or have crazy colored hair. Some times the Hair policy is removed on occasion for an example, Halloween. Which is pretty cool. Policies for bullying is totally understandable. Coming from a girl who was bullied, I can relate and is grateful for the enforcement.

You'll find peer pressure in about any school, but the school culture and diversity is not really an issue. This small school is very close. You don't really see the different types of social groups as you would do in a bigger school. Yes we all have those certain "Bad Kids" but the school has always been there to force them to get it together.

School has changed alot over the years. The principal that they appointed for this school is very strick and aggressive. My child is on the A&B honor roll and she gets picked on for her wanting to be herself. No child should be picked on. Treat them like you would want your own child to be treated....

As someone who has attended Anton High School and Anton Elementary for eight years, this is one of the best schools i have known. The small classes provide great student/teacher one-on-one and school administrators are invested in all school aspects. The community is extremely devoted, and every stu...

The Principal here is what really ruined the school. Just like the person above me stated, he routinely picks on many of the students. My son has recorded him threatening both my son and his girlfriend. Any time a parent calls to resolve the issue or ask about his behaviors he either puts on a show...
