    #1 Best School Districts in Custer County

    Senior: Arnold High School is awesome the teachers and administration are great to work with we have great clubs and programs but we lack on college courses that we can take because of where we are located. Our community is very involved in the school and so are the parents we have great support and students that attend. Our school is older and need revamping we just remodeled the commons area and that has helped tremendously but the school needs money to ad new class rooms and update areas of the school. We have a huge leg up in our school on the business and shop side of things though the facility is lacking terrible of quality we have a school run business School House Graphics Productions. We do anything from state regulation street signs to laser and vinyl designs on cups as well as business signs and local ambulances.

    #3 Best School Districts in Custer County

    Senior: My experience at Broken Bow Public Schools has been interesting. Everyday you don't know what is gonna happen that day with your teachers and students and it makes me look forward to the next day with the next lesson or assignment that is given that day or just being with you fellow classmates. I had a fun time with the sports for playing football and golf and also being in the stands in the student section during home and away games. The resources that we are given to learn and help us with the future with college and choosing in what field of study you want to go into. The one thing that I'm gonna most definitely miss is that getting to see my classmates everyday and playing sports for my school.

    • 3 reviews

    Senior: The staff at Ansley is wonderful. They all are so friendly and amazing teachers. There are a quite a few classes to choose from like online college classes and online high school classes. But not very many in school options. There are few extracurricular activities to choose from and would be better if there were more options.

    Senior: I love McPherson County Schools! I have attended this school since Kindergarten and I can not imagine my self going anywhere else!

  9. Sargent Public Schools

    • School District
    • Sargent, NE
    • 2 reviews

    Parent: I really like my school because it has some really cool teachers who make the lessons interesting and make you want to work hard. We did have some kids that were bullying other students including calling me names. We don't have that problem anymore but sometimes I think the principal needs to be tougher with some of these kids, because it took awhile before anyone really started to do something about it. Besides this I loved being able to see my friends everyday. Each year we also have a dodge ball tournament between 9-12 grade. This is really fun and great. Plus, I think one of the main reasons we do this is because we have a small school, which I love.

    Commonwealth School

    • Private School
    • Boston, MA
    • 9-12
    • 21 reviews

    Parent: Commonwealth's faculty deliver a level of academic rigor that I've been unable to find at other schools. Just as amazing to me is the amount of nurturing and support the school is able to provide to students in attaining their full potential. Thanks to Commonwealth's small size, students are able to meet one on one with their advisors on a weekly basis. A good number of the faculty have university teaching experience, yet it's abundantly clear from the individual attention they give students both in and out of the classroom that they're at Commonwealth because they love teaching and working with teenagers. Another key ingredient in the quality of this school are the students it attracts: bright, curious, unpretentious, and not cliquish. My daughter, who tends toward quiet and reserved, has been at the school as a ninth grader for under a month, but has already made close friends. We're extremely fortunate to have found this school; I can't recommend it enough!
