I would choose to attend Scales Mound School all over again if I could. The school is very small, because of this, students are able to get more help and attention from the teachers. It is also really easy to fit in because most of the students here have grown up together, and the ones that moved here later have been "adopted into the family".

This school is a great environment for all kinds of students with all kinds of interests. All of the teachers encourage the students to pursue their intended careers and love to see the students succeed. Some of my favorite experiences have happened in my after school extra-curricular groups. Students feel very at home and welcome and there is a friend for everyone.
