Boardman administration is careless of students that need the most help. Mentally for the most part. Once they ask them once to pay attention they do not care to ask again. Sleeping everyday and more. They really don't care if the kids genuinely okay, it's just pass this pass that right?

Boardman Local High School was an amazing school to attend. Administration was very thoughtful and clearly loves their job. This school created not only a safe learning environment but a fun one too.

Boardman Senior High School has upheld a tradition of excellence for a very long time, however, there has been a massive amount of turnover among administrative staff in recent years. The current administration has made drastic changes to long-held policies, much to the students' and parents' dismay...
