Reed City High School Reviews

Reed city High School is an average high school. The good thing about this school was the oppurtunity about starting an ASL club that my friends and I wanted to.

I had fun here, but Reed City lacks in many areas. The school is severely underfunded and does not prepare students for college. Sports are prioritized over academics. Teachers are helpful and kind, but quite often the focus is just getting students to pass rather than pushing them to excel. As an alum who is now attending a large state school, I was severely underprepared for college-level academics. Be prepared to work extremely hard to catch up if you plan on going to college. I will say that the school presents many opportunities to participate in clubs and sports, however they are often dominated by popular students and are somewhat exclusive. Bullying and racism occur ridiculously often and little is done to address it and hold students accountable. LGBTQ+ students struggle significantly more than they should and there are no outlets to support them. Counseling (for both academics and personal matters) is basically nonexistent. I’m hoping things change for future classes.

There is definitely some truly dedicated teachers at Reed City who care about their student's education and well-being, and I have enjoyed forming relationships with those individuals.

However, other aspects of Reed City High School have not been as positive. Negative attributes include limited AP classes, limited clubs, and the lack of a choir/theater program. Also, maintenance in the school is poor. For example, the walls of the bathrooms are riddled with profanity. Additionally, our school is located in one of the most disadvantaged areas of the state, so an abundance of resources and great facilities is not a reality.

Although there are many improvements that could be made to Reed City High School, I think the most prevalent issue is school culture. Bullying is a neglected problem, specifically in regard towards special needs students. Also, several students in our school display racist behaviors, and as a person of color, I have dealt with these behaviors firsthand.

Overall, my RCHS experience has been beneficial to my future. The honors programs and AP classes have truly helped me learn and grow. I am thankful for these past four years. Although, more effort could be made to protect LGBTQ+ members attending Reed City High Schools. Many of us are bullied by peers, but are too scared to bring it up in fear of homophobia.

I think of Reed City High School as an average school in most aspects. I believe the teachers care about the students, which I really appreciate. Although, there isn't much diversity, and not many club choices. I think it was an acceptable school to grow up in; however, I am very prepared to move on to a larger and finer school.

What can I say about Reed city high school? I've only lived in one city all my life, I may have moved houses but reed city is my home and the only school I've been to. I love the school, my teachers are like family to me. The longer I've known them the better they are as family to me. I definitely would recommend anyone to send their kids there.

it's actually fairly safe but poor academically. little to no choice in your classess because there wasn't much to choose from in the beginning

Reed City high school is full of teachers that are there to see you strive. The administration can use some work but they are taking the steps to fix that at the moment.

Reed city high school was a descent school in a small town. Most white kids went with the exception of the 6 African American students. The school was heavy into sports and mainly focused on football. If you played sports then you ruled the school.

WE NEED A GUIDANCE COUNSELOR THAT CARES AND HAS THE KNOWLEDGE BASE TO "GUIDE" US INTO OUR FUTURES. Teachers should not play favorites and focus on higher standards in order to prepare us for college and life, not just test scores.

Very great place to go threw high school. This school has a wonderful sense of community and very friendly people however this school has a very low amount of money which hurts the funding for more classes, the facilities, and the academics

It was a decent school overall, but it does have its faults. It's extremely sports oriented, which can be a good thing if you enjoy that, but for someone like myself it wasn't the greatest thing.

Reed City High school illustrates many competitive athletic teams, very personable teachers and office staff, but does not do the finest job at offering college preparatory classes.

School that I attended several years ago provided a good education. Sports and activities were good also. Some of the teachers will be remembered for a long time.

Although the academic records of most students aren't very good, majority of the students are friendly. The staffs are very friendly.

Reed city high school is a great high school if you're looking for a small town school with high involvement. Great teachers make the environment great except for the people of the area who think their last name makes them better than others.

Average poor high school. Nothing impressive except the football team, and football is the only sport the school cares about. Funding for all clubs and teams besides football is almost none. The teachers are pretty good teachers though.

There's lot's variety and it's easy to start clubs

Everyone gets along and supports each other.

The teaching faculty are the best in the area!
