The teachers and counselors are really nice. The wide variety of classes and college readiness courses are really helpful to students that want to further their education after high school. I personally liked that they offered College Credit Plus courses and free AP tests.

I had a great time at Barberton. There were so many opportunities that I was able to take a part of and so many different ways I could chose my own path. I was able to be very involved in all school activities, which I loved.

I went to this school for one year before transferring to Norton. The teachers care, but I am so glad I was homeschooled before because otherwise I would have been way behind when I transferred to Norton. They care more about that scores than actually teaching. Don't let the new buildings fool you,...

The teachers don't apply you for anything. I got so sick of the students and staff that I moved back to Norton

I love working here. The administration is the best I've ever worked with. They are strict and personable; fair and consistent; supportive and caring. They truly care about each and every student who comes through the doors every day of the year.
