The best about Cherokee High School are the teachers. Most of the teachers at this school are really kind and human. Recently, I lost my Italian teacher and all my teachers were very understanding; they gave me more time to catch up on work and said they were always available to talk. The worst part is the amount of schoolwork we have sometimes it feels like we don't have time to enjoy our youth.

Great experience for my students. They offer a large variety of clubs and sports. The Rotating Schedule and Community Lunch and Learn are great opportunities for students to meet with clubs and get extra help from teachers.

Cherokee high school has given me the best four years compared to my last schools. The teachers are great and so are the classes. They have amazing clubs like a Renaissance club where we volunteer at different places for which is so nice to do. I'm sad to be leaving this year.

Hi, I'm a junior about to finish this year. Cherokee is a truly awful environment for kids of all types. Bullying is not treated how it should be at all in this district, from the elementary schools and into the high schools. Most teachers will either ignore, or try to support students of diversity...

Administrators love to power-trip only when they want to, not when anything bad actually happens to a student.

Prom ticket is $110, food is barley edible, only decent at sports, no school field trips, bad administration, club fee is $200, penny pinching everywhere.
