I love the teachers and most of the work is manageable as long as you stay on top of it. I think the environment could be worked on quite a bit. Most students get along but there are many aspects that could still be better.

The faculty member I liked most was Mr. McArtor. He was super involved and engaged in ever students academic life. If I could change anything about Ogallala High School I would change the fact that they don't trap shooting be a school affiliated sport, they only allow it to be a community involvement and therefore those who are in trap shooting have to either miss state trap or miss graduation their senior year. both of which no one involved in both would like to miss.

I am currently a junior at OHS. While there have been hard times, there has also been the great learning experiences. I personally like the extracurriculars like drama and music. I have excelled in these and they let me be who I am and embrace it.

I think people are harder on Ogallala's schools than they should be. It's really starting to improve. They're starting to bring in some really good teachers, especially for higher level classes like calculus and chemistry. Athletics are really strong in all areas, and the Fine Arts are phenomenal.

Ogallala has a strong athletic and academic tradition and their Fine Arts program is simply amazing! The 1:1 laptop program is under utilized, but the school continues to improve.
