School has lovely, modern facilities and a generous community supporting it, but fails to take advantage of this. Important programs (Art, Family and Consumer Ed., German) are being cut completely, while teachers in every department are facing layoffs. Unfortunately, this school places an unhealthy emphasis on athletics over academics. They would never consider cutting a sport of raising athletic fees. Instead, they cut programs and teachers that mean a lot to the students of the small, farming community.
Decent school,student athletes must maintain 2.0 GPA and no F's to participate,which causes students to take much easier classes than they need just so they can maintain GPA. Also has higher LD student ratio than state avg.Band,choir are very well done with nice participation.New building=higher property taxes.Students interviewed feel school building is almost prison like due to the lack of availability of off school programs and low student attendence to extra curricular activities
I think this is a great school. The teachers are very nice and helpfull.
