Providence Grove High School is a smaller, rural school where students feel connected to both staff and fellow students. Teachers and other staff are there to help any time they are needed. The atmosphere feels like a family. There are many opportunities to connect with others through groups, clubs, and sports.

Most all of the teachers are very nice and helpful. It is a smaller 2A school so forming relationships with your teachers are easier.

I find it amazing that this school cares so much for it's students. It is too bad that other schools are not the same. The only complaint I have is the lack of support the JR ROTC gets from the school and parents. It would be nice to see the same support for them as the sports teams get.

I have custody of my grandson and he seems to really enjoy this school being his first year there. He is Happy and that to me means this must be a great school. So far his grades are great and I have no complaints
