The academics are average here. There are many teachers who care about their students and the education they are receiving, while others should not be qualified to teach at all. There are a number of clubs, extracurricular activities, and field trips offered to students. Most classroom materials such as textbooks are outdated.

This is a terrible school! It doesn't prepare you for college at all and the courses aren't challenging enough.

Their isn't alot of peer pressure to be spoken of and cliques are none to common. 90 percent of the school is white. The gender divide was 50/50. Students are involved in activities, but the ones who aren't make it very apparent that they aren't. This is a school where everyone knows everyone, and although their are a few personal fueds in the mix, everyone typically gets along and stay socially active.

Was educated by Carmichaels Area schools including the H.S. graduated in 1969. I think we received what we as students put into it far as a good education. Good old saying (nothing ventured nothing gained) Young people today want to blame everyone else for their failures not only as students but the...
