It is fairly good. Some of the students currently going there are a little... burnout-ish and addicted to nicotine. But if you ignore those people, I've had an overall good experience.

There are many amazing people around Olivet High School and it connects to many other external schooling opportunities. Many of these opportunities are what makes OHS a good place to study and be but there is a fair share of poor experiences. Some of the teachers do not teach at the highest possible ability and are almost less helpful to a student's learning whilst other teachers excel at their job and are picture-perfect examples. Overall OHS is a wonderful place to go to school it is just about what is wanted out of it that determines how well a student can do.

I love the staff at Olivet High School and how they are always willing to help you no matter what the problem is but the schools budget is not as big as many other schools due to it being a small town. Despite that the school is very welcoming to you and your differences. They are always ready to make your school life as best of an experience as it can be.

I love Olivet High School. It's my second or third home. The FFA program is awesome. The FFA adviser and teacher Doug Pennington understands me and jokes around a lot.
