5.0 Alum

8/11/2024

Arkansas high school was a great school for me I felt safe and I had relationships with my teachers and the Arkansas high security guards I love the administration and what they do they do such a good job of teaching students things they should know in life and Arkansas high does a good job of having sports involved but my time at Arkansas high was great for me and I hope the incoming freshman can enjoy Arkansas high like I did

1/15/2023

Through my high school career Arkansas high has been full of twist and turns, many of my teachers have left in the middle of the school year, many teachers unqualified to teach the things they teach. However Arkansas high has never not been there when I need more for my academic wants.
