My children have attended Spencer for 4 years now. One is a junior and on a sophomore. I have found the teachers on the whole, are caring and attentive. They are willing to go the extra mile for a student. The administration is fantastic! From the office secratary to the principal to the guidence office. The students try hard. As with all schools it does have problems but overall I have found this to be an outstanding school. Sandra Reed

I am currently a Junior at Spencer High School! Everybody tries to pull us down just because we are majority black school and on the southside of Columbus. I am one of the very few white kids that attend Spencer and love it! I have never had a problem due to my race or anything. These students and teachers open their arms to you and they just don't care. I currently have a 3.6 GPA and enrolled in honor and ap classes! I wouldn't want to go to another school if asked! People should just give Spencer a chance and not just judge it by the outside.

I am currently a student at spencer high and i love it. It is a school i enjoy going to because it is a learning enviroment but in a cool kind of way. It is laid back but strict. I love spencer and i wouldnt change it for nothing. I have a currently 3.4 GPA and im still doing fine. So if your a type of student that loves to learn in a fun enviroment SPENCER IS FOR YOU.

I was a student at Spencer High for 3 years. From the day I came to Spencer I did not like it. Many teachers were not teaching, giving work, or disciplining distracting students. I left Spencer this year and I am currently passing all classes and doing all work. My new school has less ditractions, the teachers are doing their jobs, and they are givng us work. I do not recommend students attending this school.

As a parent of a sophomore student i think Spencer is a great school.My son has been going there for three years he's in the academie.Spencer is not the school he is supposed to be going to he's home school is carver.I heard a lot of good thing about Spencer that is why we decided to let him go there,and this coming up school term my daughter will also attend there on a hardship.I never have had any problems getting a conference with any teachers,staff etc. in fact they always call me if there is a problem weather it is academic or whatever.I have one more daughter in middle school and guess what.she will attend Spencer also.so to all the staff keep up the good work.sincerly R Hallmark

I am a student at Spencer High. This school is the worse school ever. I would love to change schools but i cant right now. Most teachers care about wether you pass or not. Some teachers give you hope. This year we are getting a new principal, hopefully it is a stricter principal.

'I'm a former student from Spencer High until my dad got stationed at Fort Bragg. I spent 3 years at Spencer from a freshman to a junior there. My overall experience was great, but at the time I was there were some outstanding teachers whom did care about whether or not you passed. Not only do the teachers and staff count for the quality of a a school, but it's also the student body. I was also in JMPA all 3 years, Officer Seldon was great and made all his students feel safe, I also loved the JROTC program at Spencer High. I can truly say I miss Spencer High School and I enjoyed my experience there'.

Spencer High School, has helped many of my family, brothers, sisters, cousins, and friends reach their full potential. At this establishment, education is their primary goal, nut to reach the scholar within the student is also.
