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.

I like that Council High is in a small community of people who know everyone and also support each and every person in this community. Council High has prepared me for my long journey and I couldn't be more thankful to have the support of the staff and my fellow students.
