Teachers were mostly fair and helpful. Work assigned was normally reasonable, given it wasn't a dual enrollment or advance placement class. Not extremely maintained.

I really like the environment at Bassett High School. I have never seen or experienced any bullying first hand while there. The majority of teachers at Bassett are kind, helpful, and speak to you as an equal. The food isn't very good, but the lunch staff is fairly friendly. There are many clubs, organizations, and sports you can be a part of.

I have enjoyed being at Bassett High School and participating in Sports and FCA. I wish we could update our school and sports facilities. We go to schools near us with much better facilities and I wish we had that.
