Southside Charter High School

• Southside School District, AR
• 10-12
• 39 reviews

Senior: I love Southside High School. I am currently a senior and have been going here ever since Kindergarten. The teachers have always felt like family to me and the staff is amazing. Everyone knows each other and we all share the same Southerner traditions. From football games, basketball games, school bonfires, etc. the southerners are always showing their spirit. The academics are tough, but they prepare you for the life outside of high school. I cannot thank the staff and the students enough for always pushing me to do my best. I cannot imagine being anywhere else. Go Southside Go!

Senior: I love Batesville High School, it has given me everything out that I wanted out of my high school experience. All of the staff are so helpful with anything that you need. I am an athlete so of course, I am going to be biased about the athletic facilities, but I believe as a 2019 State Champion that we deserve a new gym.

Cedar Ridge High School

• Cedar Ridge School District, AR
• 6-12
• 53 reviews

High School Senior: This school is a good school, and is improving every year. The best thing about this school is the size. This school is so small the teachers have more time to slow down and have a little more one on one with the struggling students. My favorite thing about this school is the understanding all the staff has. If a student is having a hard time with school, or even at home, they will go above and beyond to help and ensure that their students succeed.
