I liked most of the teachers and the food. The principal is kinda oblivious and should pay attention to what's going on in the school. The administration is lacking in a few things. It's not the greatest school ever but it's an alright school to go to.

Staff including most of the teachers dont know or dont care about the subjects they are teaching. They just dont teach any more. Its so sad. Our children are the future and they are not even taught what they need to be.

I withdrew my student.I will not issue a "blank check" for teachers to wrongfully punish my child, the principal refuses to cooperate in validating the legitimacy of discipline when issued.

Yerington High School is a terrible school. The curriculum and teachers leave something to be desired. Small town politics ruin the school's potential of excelling. Please do not let your children go to school here, it would be an insult to their intelligence.
