We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Great place to grow up, good focus on academics and sports. Teachers are competent. Not many drama classess due to lack of funding.

Seward is a small school where students are able to build lasting relationships with teachers and staff. However, opportunities are limited and most advanced classes are only available online. There is no music classes or a variety of art classes.

Seward is a beautiful town with beautiful scenery and community. But the school is lacking. There are some absolutely wonderful teachers who are inspiring and passionate, then there are others who are simply tenured in and could not care less. It is a "get by" school where greatness is not pushed, students are told to graduate, and not much more than that. I do see things changing though, and I am hopeful for big change within the next couple years.
