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.
Review Orange High School
The overall quality of teachers is good but can be hit or miss at times. Some teachers go above and beyond to ensure their students are comprehending the material but others you will find are doing the bare minimum, if that. Teaching styles vary quite a bit from teacher to teacher but you can also tell the teachers who collaborate with their co-teachers apart from those who do not. Their overall knowledge is most likely more than they receive credit for but I know a few teachers who are just extremely knowledgeable and it makes my classmates and me wonder why they aren't a college professor or teaching at a higher level.The majority of the teaching staff at Olentangy Orange High School are interested in students and their development as not only students but as young adults but their are a few I have either had as my teacher or have crossed paths with that have no problem leaving students behind and letting their grade suffer consequently. Especially with all the technology that all at Orange High School, students and teachers alike, have access to, communication skills are excellent. Between Remind101 text reminders for assignments along with Schoology supplemented by the use of PowerSchool for not only students but parents as well to access grades. Consistency in grading is good within a class that is graded by one teacher but from teacher to teacher their is no universal, school-wide grading scale besides the parameters for each individual letter grade.
Attempts are made to prevent bullying, but it is almost never followed through on, or noticed, though its not a huge issue. The school itself is very safe, and there is a resource officer there almost everyday. The school nurse never seems to be very helpful-- she almost always tells you to "tough it out" and makes you go back to class, no matter how terrible you feel.
