There's a lot of diversity in Iowa city high school. There's something to do for everyone. The teachers are very helpful, and care about your learning. If you don't understand the topic or need help reviewing, they are always open to do so. Something I would change is the lunch length, or the organization. If you aren't one of the first ones to get to the lunch line, you have a small amount of time to finish your food. Another thing I would change or add, is more diverse clubs.

I liked my experience at City High. My teachers were always looking out for my best interest. They helped me whenever I needed it and prepared me very well for college. I had also had a great time with thee extra circulars.

It is diverse, and has good teachers. It also has nice students. Renovations are underway, so the school is going to get even better when the 2021-2022 school year starts.

Have had 1 child graduate from West and 1 from City. Both were great schools, but have to give a slight advantage to City- better administration/leadership.
