My overall experience at Locust Grove High School has been good. There have been ups and downs as going into high school was during Covid. I feel like i missed a lot of valuable social experience during my freshman year due to this. The academics have typically been good throughout my experience. My favorite subjects have always been the science related ones such as physical science and biology. Those were the easiest classes for me. The safety at Locust Grove i feel has been relatively okay since we have two resource officers. I do however feel like the school could use newer and updated resources like textbooks and such.

This schools building as well as most other district properties are in desprite need of renavations. Most of the current building matterial in the football stands /seating haven't been replaced in over 40 years this has lead to people falling through the stands and this is not the only instance of repares being put on hold. During the summer the softball teams pressboxs' roof was burnt compleatly down and repares have only started in december almost four months after the event took place.

I have encountered so many teachers that loved what they did, and cared about their students. Lori Helton, Sandy Pierce, Paula Reed, Cathy Welker, and Amy Conkling are the te...
