Great! The teachers and staff truly care about the kids here. It is a great community! We've lived here 1.5 years and plan to stay forever!

Really good school. All amazing teachers who really care and are people you can talk. You really get to know them through the school year and they always stick up for us. One problem Bigfork Elementary/Junior High has is the school board and principle, vice principle, counselor. They don't give us the opportunity to reach our full potential.They get us to share our opinions but don't do anything. For example, I was in a higher english class so the high school librarian and english teacher came to an agreement to let us use that library as long as we were respectful because the elementary library had books for 6 grade and under. The vice principle eventually banned it for no reason. We are not allowed to have clubs or create a club, under any circumstances. Even when we tried to create a book club with English teacher. She agreed, yet the Principe said no. The students in this school try to make it better but keep being turned down because we are students. How are we supposed to grow when you take away the resources? The biggest problem is bullying. I was cyber-bullied and verbally abused by my peers.I have been called gay and stupid among other things. Also, my 1st grade sister was called fat and ugly and we reported it many times but it never got better. Her best friend (also 1st grade) was physically pushed down and attacked. They get called names and I have seen him cry on the bus. Recently, there have been many fights and an increase in bullying. I saw two 6th grader punching each other in a hallway. My friend had her stuff took from her locker one day and we found it in the trash. Was a very good community school until a few years back. We are being held back by the school board. Teachers and students alike try to make it a better environment.

Hey bigfork high school!!! I’m so excited to be leaving y’all a review and couldn’t be more excited to share my input!!! As you can tell I’m a big fan of everything y’all do as a school from academics to athletics… did I mention academics! However one complaint is how adri (Adriana Hilliard) Hilliard has not been receiving extra credit on any of her assignments for her amazing skills, smarts and looks. She is very funny, VERY GOOD LOOKING, and very athletic. I would be very happy and hope she receives extra credit from now on out! Thank you bigfork for taking care of my adri!
