Amazing teachers, a great variety of programs for kids to get involved in. I went to this school six years back, and now my niece attends it. The only problem we've had has been with the guidance counselors. They don't take your concerns seriously, and one of two of them were very rude and talked down to us. If you're a young parent/guardian, don't expect to be taken seriously. But other than that, it's a great school!
I went to Rogers a few years back before transferring schools and I thought that the students were very prone to cliques. Not always the friendliest and accepting students that I've come across. Although, a majority of the teachers are truly amazing people, the classes seemed somewhat easy and lacked in-depth material. However the sports and other extracurricular activities are above exceptional.
I'm graduating from Rogers high school in a couple of days. Rogers is too crowded. Plus, most of the classes I were in were too easy. They weren't challenging enough. But there are some amazing teachers, and I made some amazing friends.
Best High School in the state! Incredible academic rigor!
'We have four children who went through Rogers HS. This past year there was nothing but problems harassment, intimidation, bullying by other students. More attention was applied to the problem student than the one who was truly being hurt. The administrations concern was more on how crowded their building was at the time. They need more security officers with the power to do something in these buildings, and not be afraid of the students! Watch your student and listen to them carefully. Do not just take the administrations word for things. Remember, you are the parent. You have a say in the safety of your student.'
Good school if not a bit crowded.
i just graduated from rhs c/o 2007. rhs is a good school. i never had any problems what so ever. the only thing that bothered me were the overcrowded hallways. :/ not fun trying to get from class to class.
Rogers High School is an amazing school. I went to another high school before this one, and Rogers is so much better. The security is nice, the teachers are nice, the campus is great, and the students are very friendly. There are no gangs, clicks, or anything like that. Everyone are friends. I know it sounds like a fairy tale, but it's not. Sure there are issues, but what school doesn't? At least this school knows how to deal with them. Everyone feels safe, and accounted for. You want a school where the special ed kids are accepted, Rogers is that school. Where sports are supported to the fullest, that's Rogers, too. And I know this for real, because I am a student there, and I absolutely love it. And I'm the kid that hated school, until I walked onto Roger's soil.
Rogers is such an amazing enviroment for my children to be a part of. The administration is so amazing in dealing with the kids and the teaching staff is superb. The counselors take great care of the students and it really shows. Thank you so much rogers
The classes are limited for the students to expand on certain career areas, how ever the music progams are some of the top in the state....as a current student of Rogers I am proud to call myself a Ram and am proud of the fact that the student body is so involved in the school its self....however, the diversity is an issue. There are many different races there and they all get along, but in they do not really interact with each other....at lunch its the asians with the asians, blacks with blacks, hispanics with hispanics, so on and so forth. But over all the teachers really put forth an effort to create a welcoming climate for everyone who enters the doors at Rogers High School.
