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.

The teachers for the most part want you to succeed and help you as much as they can to see you do so.

I enjoyed the amount of teachers that were always ready to help their students, no matter the time or what they needed help with. But, the facilities of the school are very outdated, especially in the high school, which does not inhibit learning too much, but inhibits it some, along with general morale.

My experience at Green Forest was amazing. All of the teachers are outstanding, and are willing to put in the extra work to help you succeed.
