I would say that my experience at Norfork has been overall positive. It is very small, but with such a low teacher to student ratio it is much more personal than the other schools in the area. Opportunity for classes is rather low as it is a rural area, but the test scores in recent years have shown potential in many of the students.

Size of it- very personable and everyone is there to help educate all the kids! All the teachers are wonderful and kids are out to help other students when they can. My kids both have been there about four years now we have moved with the military but this by far has been the best school yet!

Low on the technology end, I wish for more involvement with the guidance counselor since information does not seem to come home as it should.

Norfork elementary has its problems and is now limiting parent involvement most of the teachers are experienced and curious some think they rule even over the parent and the principle and superintendent is allowing it If you are an involved parent and want to work with the school for the good of you...

Norfork High School is fantastic. The teachers care about the students and help to keep parents informed. The principal has many years experience and is respected by the children. The parent involvement exceeded all of my expectations. Above all, this is a nice & quiet school. You dont have to worry...
