This School’s Reviews

4.0 Senior

3/6/2025

High school for me has been a fun experience with many opportunities to get involved, whether it is sports, clubs, or education opportunities.

2.0 Sophomore

9/8/2023

Honestly if your transfering here I recommend don't your gpa starts all over if your not really good at math good luck the math department is horrible and makes you feel even more less intelligent. The school honestly doesn't even have a good support system and the amount of craves and carts around that school is very interesting but don't get caught with one because they will search you and treat you as if you're an inmate in jail.

As someone who just graduated from Canton High School, I can honestly say it was an absolutely amazing place to spend my high school years. The teachers were so passionate about their subjects and really pushed me to reach my full potential. Whether I was hitting the field with the sports teams or joining clubs, there was always something cool to get involved in.

Good atmosphere and so many opportunities to do. From sports to classes to clubs. All the teachers are willing to help the students even if you don’t have that teacher.
