The Branson School

Excellent school, excellent administration, excellent teachers. My daughter is learning so much, is not over-burdened with homework, and is happy. Students treat each other well. This is a school that does things right.

I didn't notice the 4 star (instead of 5) Head of School rating. I think this is a legacy rating from pre-2007. Woody Price has been at Branson three years now. He is five star all the way. A veteran leader who has dramatically improved many areas at the school. Do not choose a high school without meeting Woody. He will inspire you to something greater...Branson.

My son is currently a sophmore at Branson. Since the last post is of 11/07, the school has undergone significant new construction as well as remodeling. With only 320 students the school is even more of a jewel than mentioned earlier. I would disagree with rating on Principal Leadership. 'Woody' Price, the Head of School, is dynamic, inspired and involved. That rating should be increased to five stars.

I love this school because it allows students to become involved in their personal interests.

Branson is a phenomenal school. After four years, my daughter has received a college-level education from teachers who were absolutely outstanding across the board. Class size is tiny (12 - 17 students is normal), and individual attention for students is virtually unlimited. The faculty are friendly, accessible, and focused on learning. Overall, the students are extremely bright and congenial. Branson is mindful not to pile on the work too much (probably less than many suburban public high schools), because they know that most kids have substantial extra-curricular commitments. There is a strong sense of community, great scholarship support, and a surprising degree of geographic, ethnic, and economic diversity. The campus is a jewell. It's hard to imagine a better learning environment-- no kidding. Apply even if you don't think you can afford it--there is lots of aid available.

This is an incredible school for children who are willing to put the work in to gain an imeasurably fabulous education. Highly recommended.

This is the best school I've ever been to.
