It's a nice small school where nearly everybody knows everybody else. Students get pretty involved in school games.

Going to Reed Custer high school was great, the teachers where always there if you needed any help, my high school is small but that's what I like about it, the classes aren't over crowded and more time with the teachers.

The school is very small. It is a big square pretty much. The staff is like family to the students. They are very open-minded and have open arms for all students. Overall it has been a good three years that I have spent there!

Your children can spend...
