Oak Grove High School is a small A school in a small town. Everybody knows everyone and its refreshing sometimes to know everyone in the halls. Even though this school is very cliquey it feels like one big family. The faculty make it a point to have relationships with all the students. We are also very dominate in sports.

Oak grove is a small school so in a way it's a family. This comes to a certain point. There are many cliches. Oak grove is mostly a sports school. The teachers treat students differently depending on what sports they play and who their parents are. Most of the teachers don't really teach but the ones that do are AMAZING.

Oak Grove is a very good school. Having worked at other schools in the parish, we are very blessed to have the faculty, students and administration that we have. Is there an emphasis on sports? Yes! When over half of the student body is involved in sports, whether it is football (which involves well...
