2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI love my school. Compared to the other schools in the surrounding areas A-O is top notch! A lot of students get sent to A-O from other public schools in the area to get straightened out. I have witnessed reading levels go from 3rd grade up to a high school level in the matter of a year in transferring to A-O. Athletes don't always have to follow guidelines and most of our funding goes to football. Yet, most of our athletes, including myself, are honor students. I wouldn't trade growing up in a small town for anything. I would definitely recommend A-O out of any of the school in the area. I am proud to be a Bomber.Student Review12y ago - Argenta-Oreana Middle School
