I had some really great teachers, lot of them would help me and really help me learn and understand what is being taught. The one thing I didn't like was the the school system didn't punish the right kids and didn't take action where it should be. There was a lot of bad kids and if they were a football star they wouldn't get punished for anything.

Norwayne High School was a good experience. I had a lot of great times with my friends and teammates in band, soccer, softball, and basketball. I went to Norwayne my whole life and I feel that I got the education that was necessary. It is a small school and everyone knows everyone. So, if you like having a lot of connections, Norwayne is a great place.

Norwayne High School is a nice school for where it is located in rural Ohio. One of the best in the county, it however faces some setbacks in available classes, class size, and staff. It does not offer AP, the average class size around 100 per grade. Excelling in sports, not much emphasis is placed on grades or academic excellence, however, it is one of the nicer schools in the area.

This school claims to be anti-bullying, however when I attended this school I know of a few instances where extreme bullying was ignored. Issues had been brought up to the principle himself, and still nothing was done claiming that it 'happened out of school hours' even though the time stamps showed...
