We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

During my 3 years at Rogers I can confidently say it was a pretty good school. The teachers and staff are very friendly and caring. The student population is very diverse, and all sorts of people from different backgrounds can thrive. The only thing I'd personally like to see improve are the utilities present (bathrooms, water fountains, etc). Other than that, I'd highly recommend this high school.

I went to Rogers a few years back before transferring schools and I thought that the students were very prone to cliques. Not always the friendliest and accepting students that I've come across. Although, a majority of the teachers are truly amazing people, the classes seemed somewhat easy and lacke...
