3.0 Alum

I mean I got an education. I was super glad to graduate and never have to interact with this school again.

3.0 Senior

6/28/2023

I have had a overall decent experience in the school. Tons of bullying and a lot of student deaths. The teachers are fine. I would like to see the food change.

5.0 Senior

12/6/2021

I've been in the Fort Osage School district since Kindergarten. I have participated in the Choirs, Bands, Marching Band and many other activities throughout the years. It is a great school with good leadership and parent involvement in a rural area.
