We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

There is a little bit of extracurriculars. We have softball:slow-pitch/fast-pitch, baseball, basketball, archery, and track. We really don't have much money to fund these things and very little for our school alone.

The girls and boys bathroom could be re modeled a little bit more in the high school and It could use a little bit more cleaning. It really could use different things to help the children understand things better in their classes.
