Smith-Cotton High School

The school is a madhouse. To be a smarter person stuck inside this school is pure agony. Do not send your children here.

I actually graduated from Smith-Cotton. Therefore, I can fairly say that one may receive an average education there. You get what you want out of any education, but there are very good teachers walking the halls of Smith-Cotton. There are a few bad ones as well, but such is the case at nearly all high-schools. Those who would say that Smith-Cotton is anti-science are simply ignorant to the truth, and have not visited the school. They base their ultra-biased opinions on the actions of a fringe minority. Historically speaking, this has been a very improper way of forming opinions. I could say, for instance, that because some islamic extremists are suicide bombers, then all islamic people are as well. This would be an ignorant, stereotypical statement however. In the same way, just because one Sedalia school district teacher made a comment one time that was wrong, then the entire school district is anti-science. This is likewise not a fair judgement. That being said, Smith-Cotton is a fine school if one is willing to learn. You will receive whatever education you want to receive. The new school building is fantastic, and the fine and practical arts programs are superb.
