As a freshman starting at Olentangy Orange High School I was terrified due to just being the "baby" of the school yet again. I started enjoying it, it was much more freedom, more relaxing and all around great. I made a ton of new friends since two middle schools came together, I was apart of the soccer program and even made with the upperclassmen. Then my junior year I became very sick and ended up having a feeding tube out of my nose for a couple months and that is when the atmosphere completely changed, at least friend wise. Everybody was whispering about the "girl with the tube" but I do have to say the teachers were unbelievably amazing through everything and made my experience a hundred times better. I absolutely love the administration in Orange because they are how I got through my junior year and how I am getting through my senior year. My overall experience with Olentangy Orange I would have to say is a ten out of ten.

Olentangy Orange High School was a great experience for high school to have, the teachers really cared about moving each of the students forward not only in their classes, but further than that, through life. The arts programs are where the school truly shines, the (marching) band, the choir(s), the orchestras and the theatre program were all truly exceptional. The administration also ran a ship that was kept to very high standards, but manageable ones. The students are given a good amount of work, nothing that should make the students feel too overwhelmed or like they can't participate in out of school activities or sports or a job. Overall, Olentangy Orange is a top of the line high school that the students are very lucky to attend.
I think Orange high schools a well rounded school. Surrounded by helpful, caring, and very intelligent teachers, who are always trying their best in everything. As a downfall, I think the school is over crowded. It's really hard for both students and teachers to navigate through hallways. However, I believe the new school that's currently under construction will strengthen this issue.
