    Byng is a very friendly and accepting place. There are cliques, but that’s to be expected in any high school. If you are new, you’re bound to find a friend quickly. The Student Council even has a New Student Luncheon at the beginning of every year! Almost every teacher is fantastic! There is one guy who teaches three different sciences and let me tell you, he is fantastic. There’s also a woman who teaches three different math classes and she couldn’t be better. All the core class teachers can’t be beat. there’s a teacher who does three of the arts who’s kinda sketchy but if you’re one of her favorites you’ll be fine. Other than that Byng is spectacular. Great school to go to. Almost moved to Ada, but I’m glad I didn’t.

    Byng is one of those schools where they’re known for everything. They’re known for their amazing students and teachers. The students are all so welcoming and kind. Everyone seems to get along. All students support each other. Whether it comes to sports or academics, the students are supportive of everything. The teachers are probably the most generous, brilliant, kind hearted people you’ve ever met. No matter if they’re busy or stressed, they’ll always help their students in need. I’m truly lucky to be apart of such an amazing school. I’ve made such strong bonds with both students and teachers. Byng High School is filled with the best people ever.
    Byng High School is a great high school, the administration could use some adjustment, but other than that moving there was a good decision for me! Byng gives a very home type environment and the teachers really do care about the students. The teachers are very interested in the students and care very much about our education, they prepared me for college and all the hard work it will take to earn my degree. I enjoyed my time at Byng High School!
