I just recently graduated from Pocola and am heading to Oklahoma State for college. I love the school with all my heart but it most definitely is lacking very important facilities. I hope that in the future it improves.

Pocola High School was average for the schools in the area, I firmly believe they push sports and athletics over education. College preparedness was not top notch.

It is a very small school. Despite our lack of numbers, we have quite a lot of school spirit. With my school, we also have an encouraging sense of community. I have lived in Pocola, Oklahoma my entire life so I have grown up being a small-town girl. The teachers and administrative staff have all been so kind and supportive, helping me grow and watching me become a strong young adult. If I could change anything, I would increase the amount of funding that our school received.
