I moved my kids here to OG 2 years ago & don't regret it. The high school is great with wonderful teachers and staff. The elementary school however is run like a military school. Too strict. Parents have no say whatsoever in their child's education. Maybe that will change once the 'general' retires

They won district last year with no mention whatsoever. Too much emphasis on the football. Love the new principal. Discipline is first and foremost with him. I don't worry about my kids safety as much now. Read less

I believe Oak Grove is a wonderful school. They have had a few problems this year with a few fights, but what school doesn't? There is no such thing as a perfect school. One thing I was very proud about was that everyday the students would have a devotion and a prayer circle at their break. The atmosphere

Then after one fight they changed many of the students times and schedules so the jr high couldn't have their usual time with God at school. So as of what I've heard, the highschool stepped up to the plate. The students their actually learn their teachers are strict and teach! which is good! But everyone has their own opinion... But i think OG is a great school. Oh and their sports programs are awesome! Go Tigers! Read less
