Okemos High School is a very preppy and rigorous school, which is a struggle to keep up with and maintain good grades. The school is full of brilliant children from multiple different ethnicities, who are very self motivated. While OHS can be a challenge, it is an excellent preparation for college, and many of the teachers are extremely qualified, wonderful and open minded people. Okemos high school has very nice facilities and does an amazing job of funding the arts, which one cannot say for a lot of schools.
