I would not recommend OHS because my daughter and son, currently enrolled in this school, claim it is unbearable. They say the bathrooms are disgusting and smell awful. They were insulting and disrespectful to my children, and both of them came home with bruises on their knees and faces. They had tripped over a janitor's bucket and mop. They said they hardly learned anything because their teachers were just handing out packets and basically saying, "Here you go, you can figure it out yourself." How ridiculous is that? But they both have decent grades. My daughter is currently struggling with her mental health and engaging in self-harm, she claims that it's from the mental stress that this school puts out on its students. Please do not send your kids to this school, for your sake and for theirs.

As a Student who has attended Ozark till my current junior year have overall had a great experience with the atmosphere and culture of the school. I do have some reservations about respecting privacy aswell as some abuse of power from a few of the staff. I also feel that students in most schools now value the number on a test score over actual education. Again I still believe that this school has done well but still has room to improve.

My child loved going to West. He knew when he was in trouble that he had to own up to his mistakes. He learned to respect the teachers and staff and students. He excelled at technology and was given the chance to grow his skills in that aspect and not be held back to others skill levels. I recommend this school to anyone moving to the area.

We loved this school. They helped us so much and everyone was so friendly and welcoming there!!
