Calhoun Middle/High School is a small school where everyone knows everyone. My favorite memories of this school were the thuse's and Prom/Homecoming, these were very fun and well put out. Although the academics was poor, a lot of teachers would simply not teach much of anything. A lot of students would treat other cultures poorly, and the school would not do anything to help the situation. Also the school was generally not kept clean as I always saw different types of bugs. (the type that usually are attracted to dirty kitchens)

I liked my time at Calhoun County Middle/High School, it was an okay experience. I would like for the school to improve on listening to the students and how they deal with bullying.

The teachers are the most helpful that I've ever seen. They will always go out of their way to do just about anything for you. The school itself is fairly large and is kept clean, and the computer labs are well maintained.

It was okay I guess. The school is very disorganized though.
