Becker Senior High School was an overall amazing school to be a part of and graduate from. The town was very safe and was growing rapidly while I was attending school. There was good funding for the teachers and the school systems so the facilities and teachers were always nice as well.

The school does a good job of making everyone feel welcome, they do a good job of making help easily accessible and make you feel like you are not alone. The teachers are always willing to help when asked.

Had a terrible time at this high school. Some staff members are wonderful and they're the reason this school is still running. The majority however, are people who don't genuinely care and shouldn't be in their profession. Brian baloun is an idiot and Dave kreft is a coward. The whole system is inflexible and the lack of common sense and care for students, among school board is dangerous. You'll do great there if you're a robot.

My daughter's teacher told another student that just because he was alive it did not make him intelligent. She has said some pretty off-putting things throughout the year. Teachers need to teach their subject and leave their political views at home. Thinking of moving districts.

Do not move your daughter to this school if she is into basketball. The coaches will not give her any play time no matter what. Do not be fooled by the "Positive coaching alliance" this is not actually practiced at this school, they only advertise that they follow these principles.

This school makes me feel safe and gives a great education. The staff is friendly, classes are fun, and it's overall a really great school. The iPad 1:1 program is a bonus, too, because every kid that goes to the Senior High School gets an ipad for their whole high school endeavor.
