I like the school it not that bad from other schools, I would just like them to do better on lunch choices. And how clean they keep the school.

My experience with Neosho High has been nothing like the movies about high school I watched growing up. But, I wouldn't want to change anything about it. I have met all of my best friends through this school district. I have so many precious memories here. My first heartbreak, first friend, first experience with bullying. I'm glad that I had this district to be something consistent in my life. While it has its faults, none of them outweigh the positives.

What I loved about Neosho High School was how diverse it was. Everywhere you look you see different people of different cultures around you. The staff are always involved with the students whether it be just about academics or a simple chat. The teachers that I've had has always try and get me prepared for what is to come into the real world. They make sure and get with you about your academics and what is the best next step. The counselors do an amazing job making sure every student is where they're suppose to be class wise and simply just being there for the students.

This school has gone way downhill. It used to be a school full of fun and school spirit. Now there are fights EVERY day. Most students are depressed and wanting to run away. The staff have no concern for the kids. The teachers ,at least most of them, don't care about there job. This school is REALLY...
