As a student of Canton High School, and having been in the district since I was 5, I can say that Canton High is the worst among the schools in the district. You can feel the negative energy in the air. Teachers strongly dislike their jobs and treat their students just like it. For me, it has been a draining experience, though everyone's experience is different.

The things I like about Canton High School are the teachers mostly. They are very passionate about helping you with anything and are always there for you. They are always there to encourage and push you to do better for you to reach your goals. The students you surround yourself around also supports you in every decision you decide to make because they want you to succeed in life as much as you want them to.

Canton High isn't your normal high school. We have students and a faculty team, but only a selected few members of the faculty teams cares and they'll be sure to share that with you as well. I don't feel like I'm ready for college. My school barely gave us any advice. They didn't even tell us about the FAFSA, nonetheless help us fill it out. I feel like everybody in other school districts are way more advance than us. We (the students) all come into Canton High with one goal: to graduate. It isn't about learning or excelling in our classes anymore. We all just want to get as far away from Canton High as we possibly can.

I hated when we moved from another state from top of the notch/10 thumbs up school to this area and the Canton Public High School. I pulled my child out his Sr year and he finished studies thru a vocational-training school. He was able to get his diploma, graduate on time and utilize his training fo...

I taught there 94-99. This was not a fun job. Don't get me wrong I had some great Kids that went on to college and better things. But they had to leave canton to get there. I taught JROTC. If the school could get rid of the trouble makers things could improve. They don't. They use to send the proble...
