Senior: Over the past four years of attending OTHS or O'Fallon Township High School, I have made many memories that will last a lifetime. I love homecoming week and all the dress-up days and activities. Our athletics are top tier and attending themed sporting events is always so fun. I love the way we get news out to the students through our video production of Panther Beat. There are so many club and extracirriculars to join for everyone. The academics and staff are great as well!... Read 542 reviews

Alum: Triad High School brings an amazing culture and atmosphere to its students and community. The athletics are great for being a medium sized school, we often competed with lots of bigger schools and held our own very well. The teachers were great. The athletic facilities were solid. The school itself is fairly new built around 2000. Administrators weren’t bad but often had a very political feeling to every action they ever did. There was a pretty big lack of diversity at triad. I did not have 1 single non-white teacher in my 4 years there and I’m not even sure if they employ any people of color in the entire school honestly. The student body is mostly white and middle class by a large margin. The guidance department was zero help to me and many of my peers in helping us plot our futures. The school spirit, extracurriculars and great community feel makes Triad a overall pretty good school!... Read 193 reviews

Alum: I'm a former student and a proud alumni. I would consider Lift For Life Academy as a non conventional institution. Every bit of the teaching and activities are catered toward the specific needs of the students. This school is where both excellence is cultivated and an opportunity for a second chance is given. My life is forever changed because of the awesome staff and caring (but tough) leadership. Although, I love Lift for Life because it provides a sense of family & togetherness. I think they could do better in areas of college prepping and improve their grading system. It is very inconsistent and I could never get a straight answer on what the metrics are for grades from any of the instructors. It seems subjective and based on each teachers opinion of progress or performance, not just the numbers. Also, the after school activities are inconsistent. I attempted to partake in multiple things but often times sports and activities were cut short or had poor practice scheduling.... Read 12 reviews
