Rating 2 out of 5
The school is top rated because of remediation- sure ya get to take tests over your gonna get a higher score, but that ain't life and teaches the wrong value there. Also vaping is a big problem all over ochs- everyone does is and the teachers and everyone are clueless then acted shocked when the kids have it. there is no respect, no manners, fighting. my kids talk like thugs. The only thing the school cares about is football and being ranked. they don't have fair funding for other sports or promote other kids. The AD is best friends with the principal so so much favoritism, it's just ridiculous. they need to see what nohs is doing right and take notes.

I went there for the last two years of high school, and my mom works at one of the elementary schools, most of the teachers are great, and they have a ton of programs. You are able to join main after school, before school, and during school activities. It is a great school system, and I would let my future kids go there
