As a senior at Rocky Grove High School, I have enjoyed every aspect of the high school experience. I have lived in the Rocky Grove area my entire life, and it has impacted me in so many ways. Rocky Grove is such a close-nit, family oriented school district. I have never felt uncomfortable at school. Not once. Rocky Grove is a small school, which also contributes to how close I am with my teachers and peers. I wholeheartedly appreciate every up and down this high school has given me.

Bullying is a major issue, and admin folds to parental pressure much too easily. the focus is on minor, insignificant issues instead of the real ones

The teachers are great they will always be there when you need them, they will also help with anything, school questions and even personal stuff. The school is trying to become more modern when I was there they were doing many updates. RGHS is not the best at sports but we also were not terrible at the same time.
