Big Walnut gave me many opportunities for preparing for my future like, career centers, fairs, clubs, athletics, and simply academics allowing me to reach many academic achievements such as magna cum laude, honors diploma, and many seals required by Ohio law.

Welcoming environment with many amazing teachers. It does have its faults, the class rooms have thin glass windows facing the hallways and sports are prioritized way more than the arts. But still a great school.
