I think the school is a school that mostly cares about their sports, and money and not actually their job. I'm never a student to just talk bad about a school, but I can't honestly say our school really just helps us with our process from high school to college. So many of our students have potential, but no one pushes them. As the community that they present themselves to be, they only care for their children.

Itawamba Agricultural High School is a laid back and comforting high school. The teachers are intelligent and nice. The classes are smaller so you get personal connections with your teachers, and it is also easy to make new friends. It is not uptight and strictly business. They like to have fun. One thing I would change is the racism. It is predominantly white, and the racism is noticeable.

My experience so far was quite chaotic, but my classes were fairly challenging. The food was fairly decent. Most of my teacher's did a very good job of explaining and teaching harder lessons. The teacher's were not very biased about religion or politics however. If they had a certain opinion you knew it. Otherwise, very good school to attend.

Choice school of Bigotry and teaches students how to manipulate laws. This school has successfully proven self-centered interests of the dark days of segregation and disrespect of the law. Not a school to have your children attend.

Life is all about choices. Good ones. Bad ones. Therefore my husband & I CHOOSE to take part in ALL THAT WE CAN with our children at IAHS & IAC. People who do not think that these schools are very GOOD schools clearly have not associated with any other school systems! There are so many other schools...

This school is discriminatory and dishonors itself by excluding students. Clearly a school that is not focused on larger society and believes that a moral compass is only set by people THEY believe are correct. Do unto others does NOT apply here.
