We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Elida High School has been an overall good experience, letting me grow not just as a student but as a person. The people were what made the experience great, having friends that came alongside me and helped grow a feeling of community.

Great school, although school board is terrible. School board makes decisions without looking at effects on students or staff.

My overall experience with elida high school has been overall a wonderful experience with me wanting to go to school everyday. I grew close to several teachers and made me deal with some tough times during my life. The food definitely needs improved with me going some days not eating due to the lack of food that doesn't taste like cardboard. Although the food wasn't great the experience at Elida was good and prepared me for college.

Elida was a decent school my freshman year. Quickly the quality went downhill. The administrative staff and some of the teachers seemed to be unqualified and greedy. (There definitely are good teachers that make the experience bearable). In recent years the school has had staff that has discriminate...
