Bluestem is a very small school, but that means that everyone is very close-knit. The community is very welcoming. Since the school is small, and classes are smaller the teachers can focus more on each individual student.

My school gives everyone the opportunity to be involved in a sport. We don't have tryouts so if someone wants to work hard to play they can get better throughout the season. We have an amazing weight room with a great weights program that does well at the state powerlifting meet each year. Our baseball and wrestling team is also very successful.

My school is very involved. Since we are a small school we all know each other and have grown really close. The people that lead our clubs are very passionate about what they do. Our Student Council is very active. Our administrators encourage us to be the best we can be. We all work very hard in all of our extra curricular activities.

Majority of graduates do not go onto higher learning and those that do have a hard time adjusting to harder coursework because the coursewo...
