We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Ash Grove is the only school I've ever attended. It definitely has the small town feel. The teachers care and support the students so much. However, it can sometimes not have the best of resources.

There is only a few teachers in the school that actually teach in what they majored in, in college a majority of the others have Phys. Ed. degrees. the styles are decent and a couple of the teachers are good at teaching however the amount that don't is to high. the interest in students is low if you are out side of sport i was basically shunned by several teachers that coach football when I quit it. The grading here is messed up all the teachers grade differently and the scale is non-wieghted so the kids that took easy classes have a higher GPA than the rest.
