Earlham is a small town with around 1,000 people as a whole population. With a town this small, everyone knows everyone and that means the community is also a support system. Without the community aspect, being a student here wouldn't have been as uplifting as it was.
Small town school working to upgrade to get to the next level. The type of classes offered at the school are more limited that other surrounding schools. Would love to see more foreign language and sport choices offered at the school.
Overall, Earlham is a nice school. For our size, we do extremely well in extracurricular activities, but the classes offered are mostly state-required or agricultural. Unless you want to be a farmer, be a musician/artist, learn Spanish, study STEM (minus engineering), or English, you may have to wait until college to start studying your future career. The administration does all they can with its funding, but the district has room for academic growth. Lastly, the school culture is built on cliques, but we are small enough that different groups mix a little. Bullying is not as bad as other schools, but there are too many issues to say it's a healthy school culture. Though needing more diversity, a wider scope of classes, and less bullying, Earlham is a good school.
