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.

Simmons High School is a remarkable school. The school district has been gone to the football championship game 3 years in a row. It is filled with smart children. They are courteous and willing to learn new things. They have after school programs to help children stay out of trouble. This is a very nice school district.
