Alum: Going to high school at Olathe High School was one of the best experiences. It was on the smaller side of schools, but it was nice. You had the opportunity to have more one on one time with the teachers, especially with the classes you struggled with. There were also lots of clubs or other programs you could become involved with. The smallness of the school also meant you were very close with you class mates and I think that connection is important in high school.

High School Junior: At Montrose High School we always do fundraisers and donations for people in need in our community and to be a student involved and observing is touching.The student body and teachers here get all fired up and passionate during homecoming week; it makes it really special. I love our school spirit and how we can all come together as one for Varsity games! I would not choose this school again though because I would have loved to attend a high school who favorites the academics more than the football teams. I wish I would have had more opportunities to learn cool things, such as anatomy or more college classes to take.

High School Senior: I grew up in a really small community. Considering how rural the area is and how few students attend my school, it makes sense why parents here are so committed. I believe that most of the parents care about the school as a whole. Although I think that I go to a good school with caring adults, I am not sure if I would want to go to this school again. There are limited opportunities here, with no extra curricular activities except for sports. If possible, I would love to go to a larger school that has more diversity and options.

Niche User: As previously stated, this has to be the best school that I have attended. The staff go above and beyond their job descriptions, the school days are only three hours long, you get vending machines and a stocked kitchen, the staff help you understand what you're reading and will help you with anything that you need. I could fill a page with the positives of this school, but that would become rather monotonous.
