There are some improvements that could made, including taking away our 7th period which limits oppurtunities as a student. In addition to this our district is being sued. At our school specifically the facilities are not very good, food is horrible which makes the school experience worse.

Redmond is a great school, there is a diverse range of classes that will prepare you for collage. but there is work needed to be done. the football program needs a better coaching staff, teachers need to be more involved, and some students need to be told what is wrong.

If your child plays football and has a 1600 SAT, I'm sure they'll do fine at Redmond High. They'll even be lauded and awar...
