This school has horrible placement for classes. They emphasize their Technology center but do not apply admission to it evenly across the board. Students can be failing multiple subjects and still be admitted while others with consistent A & B grades can be completely denied. The school imposes a study tract of what THEY think your student should be. If they can get kids shunted to the local collages then it looks better for them. They are more beholden to the community investors than the actual kids. If you can get in, there are great teachers and programs to be a part of. But if you don't tic the right buttons - they won't do much to help you, or they'll make promises they won't keep. I loved the Joplin School District but the experiences my family has had with this high school has put the final nail in the coffin on my hope for public education in this area.

People get bullied in this school, the counselors don’t do their job regularly.
