8/19/2022
I had a good relationship with almost all of my teachers and peers; however, I was not challenged as much as I wish I was. I feel as though this experience did not prepare me as much as I would have liked for college.
4/12/2018
The classes are small and the teachers are able to give you one on one help. The students are nice and respect others. Small town atmosphere is nice too.
12/29/2017
It was a small town school, thus not as many options for classes we're offered. However due to the small town nature it was easy to make connections with the teachers and participate in multiple after school activities while getting extra help form teachers if needed. The school did well for small town as well and offered multiple AP classes and provided chrome books for the students.

My kids came from a “blue ribbon” school. It I have to say I made the right choice to move back and send my kids to the schools. The teachers are wonderful! My eldest was having issues with Math or at least at the “blue ribbon” school. She is excelling, her confidence is nothing like I’ve seen befor...
