Flora is a basic small town school. Sports is just about the kids have to do here which causes them to over ride academics. The art department needs more funding but we have a new football run out tunnel... There needs to be more college prep and proper selection for honors classes. They do their best to keep up moral but academics needs to overcome athletics.
