O'Donnell is a wonderful school. Great teachers and wonderful academics and sports. Though I would like to see the school be more concerned with the bullying.

I would like to see a change in the way some teachers teach their lessons. Some move through them so fast that students are struggling to figure out how to work certain problems. I would like to see more 1 on 1 help between the teacher and the student.

The highlight would definitely be girls basketball. Our team has been to the regional tournament the past two years and the program is on the rise. Our football program is good, not great, but we play 6 man football because of our small size. the baseball program does well.. the golf team last year only had 2 guys on it. the tennis team had 3 guys and 5 girls last year. Our cross country and track team go to state every year so you could say that our program is pretty successful. I highly recommend O'Donnell because of the opportunity to play/participate in multiple things i.e. basketball and cross country or track and tennis (even if the sports are in the same season).
