This school allowed my son to be terrorized for an entire year on the basis of lies. Lies which the school could indeed prove were just that. They said they weren't picking sides or favorites but they sure did and some of what was allowed to happen was illegal by Illinois state law . My son almost killed himself over the happenings here at this terrible school. The community is small and the superintendent is mixed in with the country club crowd out here which means everyone is/was allowed to do whatever they want to children without any legal ramifications because the police and judicial system will let this school and the educators do whatever they want to children even if it does break Illinois state law. This is the worst school we've ever encountered.

I greatly enjoyed my time there between the different personalities of students, teachers, and other faculty members. The time spent in and outside of school was great as well, with practices, friendships, and memories made. One thing that I would like to see change is the bullying, which is seen as just friendship or playing when in reality it is not.

Average high school experience, very FFA oriented which usually feeds back into the farming community. Great band program

It is a very sports based school that is where all of the funding goes. Students with other interests are pushed aside.

No contest in the area with being the best school! The teachers are one on one with the students and they want your children to succeed. The school stands behind the students in their academic and athletic accomplishments. GREAT SCHOOL!!
