The teachers spend a lot of time getting to know their students. There is a lot of one on one teaching as well as hands on learning. The class size is about ten to twenty kids, which for me is the perfect amount.

I wouldn't like to see anything change. I love Guthrie because everyone's very welcoming and kind. All the teachers make sure everyone understands the material and the superintendent and principal know whats best for everyone. No one ever complains about having to go to school because they love it here.

My experience with Guthrie Center High school, so far, has been absolutely amazing. At my high school everyday you come home with home work, because our teachers believe that we are all smart enough to get it done and do it right.
