We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Mark Twain is an overall good school. There are some bad parts and some good parts. Our sports programs are all decently funded.

As a student at Mark Twain, I have loved my time I've spent at school. Teachers and faculty are easy to get along with and will go to infinite measures to help you achieve your goals. Something I would like to see change though is the sports program. I strongly believe the stability of a coaching staff can heavily affect the greatness of a team no matter how much talent the team as a whole has. We've always struggled to keep coaches as long as I've attended Mark Twain, and I hope someday that changes.

I liked the fact that it was a small school amd the teachers knew you personally because we live in a very close community so we all knew each other and built friendships in and outside of school.
