Buckeye Local School is a medium sized community that keeps students accountable, it also feels like a community, people in this district know and help each other. Some things I would like to see change are some improvements to the building itself.

I have enjoyed my time at Buckeye high school as it's small class sizes have allowed me to excel and receive the help I may need. However, the current administration is poor and questionable. It also lacks sufficient resources and awareness of those resources.

I liked their sports and athletic environment. They have poor facilities and poor college readiness for students. The college readiness isn't addressed well at all and fails to prepare students for a college level education.

This school is full of teachers and staff who genuinely care about your kids. Alot of the bad issues other schools have are very low in number here or non existent. The school counselors are great with helping students decide on classes that mirror their future plans.

Such a great and carrying school in which to entrust your children's education. Not so big that your child becomes just a number.
