4.0 Senior

Charles City High School provides a lot of advanced courses along with Co-ed courses with NIACC which I like. This helps me prepare for my future a lot more since I can get some college credit that is free too. Even though, the facility needs some air conditioning to provide a better learning environment for its students.

I loved that Charles City High School had a great women's wrestling program as well as music programs. I feel that my time here was a great four years and am so happy to have gotten such amazing teachers.

A lack of college prep. A lack of caring from the teachers and staff. This school cares deeply about money but not so mych about education. I do not recommend this school.

Charles City Schools is a great place for students to be involved. There are many different activities and clubs for students to get involved in. Gets students ready for college by offering classes through NIACC.
