Teachers were very caring, and helpful. School was very clean, and professional. Learning experience depended on the teacher. Test scores were amazing throughout the student body.

Politics really influences all sports and activities in this school system. Many of our small activities such as band does not get any support like the other sports when band is so important and keeps the pep spirit alive during sporting events. Sad.

Everyone is this county grew up together or kin to one another. Very insecure to outsiders who move into the county.
