If I were to rate my experience so far for Eagle Grove High School I would say that the teacher and staff are great. So far I have had a good experience with the staff I have staff members I can trust. Some bad thinks I have seen is how the school is divided it feel like there's two schools in one. What it would like to see a change is fixing the issues by making more of them interact with each other group them together.

The guidance counselor offered great support and answers for the future. Teachers were very helpful when students showed they care. Small school, so the curriculum is not up to par with universities and colleges.

Eagle grove high school is a good school where it is fairly easy to pass your core classes. The teachers do well with helping student who are seeking help. Some things that are not so good about this high school are the conditions. The school is fairly old and ready for an update.
