The Olentangy Local School District is a very competitive district with various approaches to teaching students. It is a well rounded district that offers special programs for students, whether they need extra help or are advance for their grade. It has made me a better student by showing me what it is like to adapt to different teaching styles. The district holds each student to high standards and wants us all to make it to graduation and beyond, if that’s what we please. If possible I recommend trying to get your children or family members into the district, you will be pleased with the results!
Overall fairly good school district. Good resources available to students, as well as opportunities. Some problems with equality across high school campuses. Does not focus well on problem areas, instead focusing on areas that are good, and making them great. Orange high school is not very well kept, administration was lacking on student support for Berlin students, and Liberty students receive outside funding that affords them opportunities not given to other Olentangy children from different high schools.
