Andrean High School Reviews

124 reviews

Andrean is a good school. Not all the teachers are great but the student body is. The school is very much worth it if you learn to talk to the student body. Everyone is treated like family and there is nobody left out of the group as a whole. Some of the teachers make you want to tear your hair out that's the biggest critique, but if you ask them for help you will usually get it. The faculty is very useful and can help guide you through anything you need help with. The homework workload is something to easily deal with until you hit senior year at least in my experience. It is doable though as long as you keep focus and pay attention in the classes.

I loved going to Andrean High School. It felt like one big family. The teachers, faculty, and student body supported one another, which made activities and sporting events enjoyable. I loved the atmosphere! It was so enthusiastic! I am a proud 59er alum ! God bless.
Andrean High School provided you with small class sizes. There were teachers ready and willing to help you succeed. There were some administrative challenges during by time at Andrean. The staff at Andrean needs extensive diversity training. Students of all backgrounds should feel welcome at school everyday. the facilities need some serious updating. There is no air conditioning in the summer and the heating system is very inadequate. There is some parent involvement, but I believe that a PTA would be very helpful. Andrean needs to improve on the communication with the parents and students concerning changes that may effect a child's education. The cafeteria and the lunch staff is the best. Food choices are very satisfying.
