Overall being at Chardon Highschool has been a mostly positive experience. The teachers tend to all be super kind and helpful, and have been great mentors for me and many others. The one major downside does have to be the student parking lot, because many cars get hit and it is not paved. The sports aspect of Chardon is very positive as well. Many people are involved in some way or another, and it's a great environment to be in.

the best portion of my time at Chardon high school was in the choir, art, and theatre areas. The building itself was falling apart, but those teachers especially tried. Many of the underclassmen were struggling with drugs, and it wasn't the most accepting place for a transgender student such as myself to be. I would hope for the school to become more accepting of diverse populations and to obtain a safer facility. I made some of my best friends there, regardless of the struggles presented to me.

Terrible school. If you are not white, do not go to this school. You will get bullied and made fun of constantly. If you are shy, you will not survive at this school because no one cares. As a girl you must wear tons of makeup and dress as less as possible to fit in. Most teachers do not care about...

Terrible, most students consume drugs during school. Some don’t show up, fail classes, and the teaching the school provides doesn’t help a child’s growth
