It's a good school, but like all schools it could use some work, especially with their available electives.

Banning High school is a very diverse school full of wonderful students and staff. I do however wish that there would be more opportunities for academics and recreational activities and were the heart of the town's future.

In the manner of education, it isn't the best school to attend if you want to attend the best colleges. The community isn't too cooperative and the school lacks a lot of positivism. The school doesn't get enough resources to have many AP classes and the best thing about this is dual enrollment with MSJC.
