School Reviews
4 5/13/2017
Noblesville High School pushes students to exceed in academic understanding and excellence, but it has its flaws. The students push themselves to the point of depression as the academic environment is incredibly competitive, and exhaustive. The school lunches serve Facon (fake bacon). And the overall environment between students achieving at the highest level is you or me not one of community. The school offers a wide range of AP and college prep classes which most of the time have passionate teachers teaching. Noblesville grades and academics a far above most high schools in the area and across the nation. It is a great school and I would gladly send my future kids here, but it takes a self driven motivated student to succeed and push past the useless drama of high school life and experiences.
