Although the ciriculum and extracirricular activites are outstanding the teachers and method of teaching are below of what's expected. I have two daughters currently enrolled in the school and both are unhappy with the school feeling as it's 'too easy'. I, as a parent, feel Grafton is a substantial school but children should go to a school more for education than fun activities.
Administration is very supportive of the football and hockey teams. The other athletes feel like they are second class to thode tems. There seems to be a underlying support to student behavior that suports drinking and sports.
Grafton is a small, growing and involved high school. I have two sons attending, one graduating. The education opportunity is very strong, with successful students easily obtaining acceptance at the best universities in the country. A great small school where everyone knows everyone, high level of safety and strong parental involvement. We moved to Grafton for the schools and less urban setting and have been exceptionally pleased.
The high school is an older structure but very well maintained. Students are heavily invloved in extracurricular activities. The principals are exceedingly supportive and respectful of teenager needs particularly their social and intellectual development. The teachers are the best! THe Motivated teachers bring excellence to the classrooms. A small school community allows for a more personable environment. Everyone seems to know who you are and this can be a wonderful advantage in the high school years before attending huge college campus' and their huge student enrollment.
