Plainwell is a good school district. Personally i think the elementary schools are much better than the middle and highschool. It's a decent place to grow up.

I think that the high school as a whole is a great place for students. Plainwell is a safe space for those that need to talk or just somewhere to enjoy. The teachers are great and are always looking out for the students and are always trying to make the students better. They are pushing the students to achieve great things are show them the great things they can accomplish.

Hell. It's hell. You're kid will do fine if they are completely normal. They always side with normal. They'll treat any kid with emotional, learning, and social issues like absolute trash. Though even a normal kid wont be ready for college by the time they get out. Academics are terrible, even thoug...

Poor. School does nothing against bullying. Dress code is up to interpretation of teacher. So if a teacher doesn’t like you, you get reported all the time. No help with individuals with learning difficulties. Most issues are encouraged to be handled without 504 or IEP

Plainwell High School is a great school with a great staff. Everybody works together to get the job done right for the students. My husband and I specifically moved to Plainwell because of the quality of education that our children receive. Go Trojans!

The school is great. All the teachers are supportive of the kids and that really helps them succeed. Both of my children come home happy and are actually excited to go to school. I would not send my kids to another school.
