There are some very dedicated teachers at Caro. But,care more about their sport they are coaching or their paycheck. The school board and superintendent do not put children first like they continually say they do. It all comes down to money.. Any creative person there is saved only by the creative imaginative teachers and there are only a hand full of them.The overall feeling there is "shut up, dress alike, join a sport, and let a few people have most of the control." If you don't you are soon to be on the "pooh pooh" list of kids who think they are the only ones who matter, parents who taught them too think that way, and a school system that is full of adults condoning their actions. Caro should strive for a balanced school system that cares about all kids not just wealthy or old family names. Favoriticism runs rampant.

Caro High School is so overrated. We if you look at the facts, cannot make the grades. We have more expulsions, and suspensions. We are not a school willing to work with the students. Caro High School wants them to come in sit down and shut-up. The only thing we have going is our athletic programs. We need a new school board and super. Thank-you

This is not a drug free school. Unfortunately, as a student, it is not even close. I found many teachers to be supportive, however when I arrived at the University i realized that I did not have the proper education relative to my peers: specifically in APA style writing and mathematics. I would not send my children here because of the low grade of high school teachers and drug use.

Caro high school is obsessed with with football and wrestling. The only reason the band is know is because thier connection to football. Choir, what choir? I mean how many people have ever heard our choir? Choir 2 will rock your socks off! Most of the teachers know thier subject well and do a great job at teaching it. They would do better if they had a more modern building. The principals do thier best but the dress code isn't inforced as much as it should be and most of the parents aren't involved unless thier kids are. Thanks!

I think that the high school, overall, is made of excellent&dedicated teachers. Unfortunately, facilities teachers have to work with are ancient! I was a student there +25years ago, other than a few cosmetic changes the building is unchanged. Subdivided storage rooms&offices have been converted to classrooms, some teachers don't even have a room to call their own and are forced to carry their supplies from classroom to classroom on a rolling cart. The ceiling in the gym has been know to leak on a warm winter day and cause dangerous conditions for students/athletes because of a wet floor. I congratulate our teachers for turning out such good students with the resources and facilities they are dealing with, really WITHOUT! I vote for some MAJOR changes to take place with the whole district's infrastructure so that future students can enter the workforce/jobs with skills/knowledge/experience needed in this new age.

I honestly believe that this is the only school around that I would send my children too. It is safe to say that this is a drug-free enviroment, compared to surrounding area public schools, and if I had to do it all over again I would do it in a new york minute...I do hope that other parents find this helpful, and I hope that we will be having a great new bunch of students this following year.
