Overall I would say Oelwein High School is a typical small- town school in Iowa. There aren't many kids at each grade level so class sizes are small which allow students to form closer relationships with teachers. Are administrators and teachers are some of the best in Iowa and elevate the high school experience for all students at OHS.

I have enjoyed my high school experience so far I would not want to be anywhere else for high school. I am very heavy in the art and music area and wish there was more funding for the arts.

It was fine. Academically I didn't struggle and the staff was kind, but I know other students who have had different experiences.
