The school is located in a very rural part of Maine. The school is a middle of the road school in Maine. It offers a good variety of athletics and clubs. The educational programs are good with a mixture of college ready classes to trade available classes. I would like to see a upgrade to the sports fields and gym to give a better student experience. Also a up grade to the building with newer amenities. The current building was built in the 1970s and has some wear to show for 50 years of use. A newer addition was built in 1993 to add more class room space. The teachers are great and care about the students. It just needs better upgrades to accommodate a growing interest in different programs.

The school itself is fine. The staff is pretty okay, some teachers baby the students and allow them to turn in work way past the due dates. It feels more like a middle school then a high school.

Oak hill is a school with plenty of options for those looking for trade schools as well as colleges. They offer AP, DE, as well as internship opportunities. They have a welcoming environment where anyone can feel welcome. Overall this is a well rounded school for those seeking further education after high school.
