It is really a wonderful school, each teacher is always focused in the students and will help with anything. It is a rural school and smaller than most in our area, they offer many options for co-op if applicable. The guidance counselors aren't very good though.

It's a nice little school with all of the kinds of kids you'd expect to be there. However education and sports are both equally important to this school. It has about 85 or so graduates each year making pretty much everyone know everyone.

My experience was great. The staff and students there are like one big family. They over over 50 classes for college credits which allowed me to graduate two years earlier than I typically would have. I was able to walk through the hallway and be known and know other other students and create a friendship with them. I have also been able to create relationships with teachers and staff because they are not only interested in you academic career but they are also interested in helping the students of Arcanum High School become better. My principal always said "Be the best version of yourself" and that is something that has stuck with me since graduating. Everyone is trying to push you to become better versions of yourself. Very friendly and hard working atmosphere.

And last but not least, it's like any other school with student/teacher ratio and passion. The ratio is good, but...

As the parent of two honor-roll children who attend AHS, I can say with definite certainty that this school is best suited for children who fit the "midwestern stereotype" profile. In other words, if your child/family enjoys farming, country music, drinking, and football (in particular, OSU football...
