I have been going to Deerfield High School for my entire student career and it is a good small town school. The academics of the school are on par for what a school should have but many other schools in the area have some better programs. The school does have a great Tech Ed. shop and a new weight room added a year or two ago. Overall the academics could be improved but the teaching staff is great for the small town budget they have.

It was like any other typical high school. There were strict teachers and bullies, but deerfield was very strict with freedom. Students could not have freedom no matter what their age. During lunch we would have to sit in the lunch room and we could not leave the lunch room to go to our lockers or to go talk to a teacher unless you had a slip. I really disliked Deerfield by my sophomore year, getting through those last two years was very difficult.
