I have had a wonderful experience at Rushford-Peterson Senior High School. The school has a wonderful and safe environment. Bullying is not tolerated at all It does not happen very often but it is stopped whenever it does happen. I would definitely recommend this school.

We are very unique. No school probably teaches like they do or interact with kids like they do. I think that this school has a lot of cool traditions, we are so small ita like one big family.
