Medicine Lodge Junior/Senior High School Reviews

I love going to school here and so do my peers. The staff does a great job at making it a caring and safe environment.
The teachers are so helpful and do the absolute best they can to make sure each student feels safe and k owns what they are doing. The student body is very helpful and understanding of others when it comes to the classroom. The faculty always keeps the place so clean and make sure each item has a home somewhere.
I enjoyed that it is a small school and I knew everyone. One thing that I wish would change is that I wish that we were more prepared for college because I am nervous and don't know what I am doing.
I think teachers are sometimes unprofessional. It is very difficult ti be professional when we live in such a small community. I think it is something that could be worked on. We have a lot of resources to help us out with just about everything. There are programs for after school help, for kids who need food over breaks, and for kids that are interested in other thing besides sports. Teachers can sometimes have favorites. Because we are so small a lot of students and parents are related. I think that is a good thing and a bag thing. Some kids are given more than others or just better treatment in general.
It is located in the little town of Medicine Lodge. I liked going there. The students were always generous and nice. The teachers were very helpful and always eager to help with challenges.
The scheduling process was very easy, but there is not a wide range of classes available. I felt I was pushed down the same path as other students who weren't wanting the same things as me. The teachers were always available if I ever needed some help, or someone I could talk to.
I think it is a little sad that the school does not have a school nurse. In some cases, a nurse would be great to have at the school, but the office secretaries have to play nurse, as well as perform their own tasks.
The school spirit has dwindled in the past few years. Some of the atheletes also think they are better than non-atheletes. That occasionally led to some bullying, and dividing into cliques.
In some ways I felt prepared for college, but in others, such as money managment, I did not have a clue on how to do those things. I did feel prepared in for the classroom, though.
I think that diversity at my high school wasn't something that was thought about. We didn't have much of it and when someone was new that became more relevant. I honestly think that they are too narrow-minded for a small school.
