Smithsburg highschool is overall a good school. While it is small and doesn't have big class sizes it still is great overall. Sports teams are good and most teachers are very nice and helpful

I loved that it was a small town school and the teachers were genuinely invested in a student's educational goals

I really like my school and I'm glad I've got to attend Smithsburg High School. There isn't another school in the county that I'd rather go to. I like the location of the school, the size of the school, the teachers at the school, and I like how the staff cares for the students and puts the students first.

This is a big plus because I used to go to a horrible school and then moved here. Also this school will help you pass big tests and you more likely to get in to a very good col...

Smithsburg is a primarily white school which is difficult when you're Hispanic in honors classes and you're the only person of color in the room. In the fi...
