During going to school here I have noticed names have a meaning, and if you don't have that name you don't receive some of the same perks. However, any teacher or coach will deny this. There were many times I have heard threats about shootings, many rumors, and many fights.

My experience at Iola Senior High School was good rather than bad. Most of the people are great and there are a lot of opportunities.

I think that we have one of the better high schools in the state. Iola built a new science center last school year which has been a very nice addition. However we could definitely have a nicer building. The schools teachers are very good at what they do.
