School Reviews
| 5 I Am so glad I went to this school I couldn't have picked a better to attend, the sports are great. Everyone is pretty nice you don't need to be in a sport to be known everyone had their own group and there is stuff for everything up to stuff like sports teams and farming or constructing I think this is one of the best schools in the whole state and this is the place to be if you want good teachers and good sports programs. - Posted by Student/Alumni - logan.lowe@lhwolves.net |
| 4 This school is not perfect but nor are any others. The majority of the children are open minded to all different backgrounds and differences. I have 5 so I have been through each school, never have I not had issues that came up not resolved quickly and with good discussion. - Posted by Parent - Clgp |
| 2 If your child is an athlete and you prefer homogeneous groups and narrow-minded adults, then this is the school for you! - Posted by Parent - passi |
