My experiences at Clay Battelle have been amazing it a very tight nit community, where everyone looks out for each other. We have very caring staff members some I would even call my friends, always being willing to give helping hand. If you like small town feelings Clay Battelle is a great place.

I have been going to this school for about half a year now. I am a transfer student from Hundred High School. I was being bullied and not getting the education I needed to succeed in my future. In the short amount of time that I have been here the teachers have done an incredible job of catching me up and making me feel welcome. My test scores increased drastically and I feel so much safer and better about myself overall.

I graduated from Clay-Battelle in 2010 and am now at sophomore at Stanford University and doing great. It is possible to get a good education from Clay-Battelle if you put forth the effort. There are some great teachers there. You just need to learn how to take advantage of your opportunities.
