I would say our school is pretty decent overall. There are a lot of things that need to be fixed though.

Knob Noster High School is a very small school and has a decently diverse student body since military children are coming through all the time. I think the school needs to work on their food and season it better.

If you have a student that excells at everything this a good school. But if your student has any leaning disabilities do not send them to this school, also their suspension rate is a lot higher probably between 10 and 20 percent mostly non military and those with learning disabilities.

Went here and felt the school wasn't that great. The teacher's who taught math, history didn't try different teaching methods to foster growth for the entire audience.
