Niche Reviews
10/20/2025
Rusk High School has prepared me for college and my future career but it has also caused me much stress because of the minimal amounts of classes, extracurriculars, and academic clubs offered. The only thing that is taken care of and recognized is athletics and AG, compared to other surrounding schools, we are the most academically declined.

I had a really good time a Rusk High School. The best part for me was joining the band and the drill team. I met a lot of amazing people. The counselors were very helpful with helping me start my college process.

Rusk High School has a very good athletic program. They spend a lot of money making sure their athletic facilities are up to par. This brings in revenue from other schools wanting to use our facilities. One thing I would change is the relationships between staff and students.
