Coming from a small community we are very tight knit and have known our classmates most of our lives. We all get along for the most part although there is some speration with cliques. We also get a huge amount of support from the community members. Most of us are second or third generations of a family to attend this school so the support for the athletics is HUGE!

All of our teachers are very friendly, and amazing at their jobs. They always bring technology into our lesson plans in some way or another, and lessons are moderately interesting. Many of the teachers are willing to put in extra time to work with you after school or during their planning periods if you need help. Classroom never get out of control due to the respect that all of the students have for our teachers at Arcola.
We aren't big on PTA in our school. They run the various booster clubs for football, band, basketball etc., but beyond that there isn't much parent interaction. Other than attending all of our sporting events, concerts, and meets, we don't see the parents much.
