I have been going to this school since I was 4. And though it all nothing really has changed. The class sizes are small and the teachers truly care about the students they teach. In January the High School was burnt down, and when everyone thought that the community would fail to help.... The amount of support was amazing. and so as a senior that will be graduating from a new building and see how this small loving town want it school to still be there many many years from now empowers me to do even more so please come by and see this amazing school! Thank you!
I am a substitute teacher and have subbed in at least 6 school districts in the last 5 years. The teaching and support staff is dedicated to this small town school district. I have seen teachers take the extra steps needed to reach out to the students that need some extra attention and help. As a result, especially in the last 3 years the students are more respectful. They are willing to reach out and help others. They set goals for themselves and have become involved in additional student and community activities. The school has a very strong FCCLA student organization. The district is working to improve itself with its limited funds. I know there is a lot of room for improvement in this district, but it would be a shame to tear this school away from this community. The school helps hold this hamlet together. I enjoy this district!
I went to both these schools, and the teachers are great and doing what they can with what they do have. I personaly do not think it should be placed in a differant school district. Keep it just the way it is.
This is a small school within a very poor school district. Therefore the school is sub-par, and the school lacks money for many of the extra-curricular activities. The school board is weak at best and the turnover rate of staff is high. The best thing that could happen to this school is for it to be incorporated into another district.
