My high school experience was you typical one. I played golf, volleyball, cheerleading, and was apart of the FFA. One thing about my school was everyone was big on the FFA. One of the last meetings I went to we realized about over 90% of the students were in FFA. Another thing I was really big on was cheerleading. The love I have for cheerleading is something I can barely put into words. Our school has around 150 kids so it's a very small and close school. It's the type of school where everyone's parents were in the same class or grew up with each other. The teachers are amazing they are patient with us but they also challenge us to be better every day.

Armstrong is great because all the teachers reach out to students and everyone knows everyone. Along with this the student to teacher ratio is really good and I have been able to work with teachers alone if I needed help on something.

My experience at Armstrong High School was really great. The low amount of students and high amount of teachers gave me the opportunity to have good one-on-one time with the teachers and get a better education. This also allowed me to know everyone in the school and make more friends.

Extremely small rural school. Only a handful of students in each grade. Allows for a much more personalized education. My teenagers went to several schools due to my job relocating and they liked this one the best.
