Saltillo High School should focus more on academics and less on sports and rules. There is A LOT of busy work and wasted time. Students who are very driven have a hard time fulfilling their need to do more, especially as underclassmen.

I have loved my time at Saltillo High School. Being able to attend football games and being in pep rallies are my favorite experience. The faculty and staff there are so loving and have always been the best. Each teacher I have had has helped me so much in my academics. Having the opportunity to be apart of the dance team and other clubs is also another reason why I love SHS so much.

Highest test scores in the state of Mississippi for 2010. Excellent people. Excellent students. School has a small feel but is plenty big enough to offer a large selection of classes.
