I am currently a junior at Ross High School. I love how many opportunities we are given to take college and AP courses. I am working to get my OT36 which is a certificate that states that I have taken 36 hours worth of college courses and the any college in the state of Ohio has to transfer the credits. I am so grateful for this opportunity because I am looking to get my MD and become a forensic pathologist which is 13 additions year of schooling after high school. This certificate can knock off a couple years of college making it more affordable for me.

I think that my overall experience at Ross High School was great. I got to meet new people and make new friends. Most of the teachers are really nice and helpful. There are many extracurricular activities to get involved in.

My overall experience is very good. All the teachers in the school are very thoughtful of their students, and they actually care about their education. I believe that the best part are the teachers. The worst part is mainly the students. Involvement of students with outside activities is very minimal — besides sports.

Horrible experience going here as a student. I felt unsupported the entire time and now that I'm in college I can see how little it prepared me for anything. This is a wretched school.

Fantastic small town school, exceeding supposedly better suburban schools at every turn. Especially enjoyed performing arts programs and was well prepared for college. Highly recommend.

My son was getting horrible grades until he came to Ross. He got interested in sports and this school has amazing sport programs. He actually involves himself in school now and enjoys it. They keep these kids in line better than other schools but they treat the kids great. It's refreshing.
