Conner is a very good school, it''s teachers push you to be better, they try their hardest to make you comfortable in the school, and despite current COVID-19 restrictions they managed to make school interesting. Conner has multiple gateway programs for aspiring engineers, doctors, lawyers, and much more. Conner also offers multiple language courses to help students succeed later in life.

Conner High School has a very poor special education department. Any favorable press you may see is greatly exaggerated to the point of untruth. The special ed department staff is arrogant and resistant to accommodating the varied learning styles of differently-abled students. Children are not engaged and challenged and are simply passed along into the next grade level. Any additional programming for the child requires the parent or guardian to vigorously insist on implementation and the staff can and will be retaliatory. If your child has an IEP do him or her a favor and GO ELSEWHERE.
Review Conner High School. Reviews should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
