2020 Best Schools in Pocahontas CountyAbout this List

Pocahontas Area Middle School / High School

• Pocahontas Area Community School District, IA
• 7-12
• 33 reviews

Senior: While Pocahontas is very advanced in regards to technology, it struggles in terms of student respect and equality. Some teachers leave as soon as possible, one of which is nearly hostile towards students at times. Sports, while lacking in recent years, have been very good in the past. The arts are not well respected, and Pocahontas Area does not have a musical.

Pocahontas Area does, however, have one of the best mock trial programs in the entire state, having the second most number of state championships in the state (falling just behind Robins/Xavier). This program is a small home, and makes students feel very welcome.

Niche User: We drive an extra long distance to get our children to school everyday, 35 miles each way. I believe that parents should be actively searching the best schools that fits for their children. I have found that the Pocahontas Area School District works with parents and the community surrounding in a wonderful ways. A lot of community opportunities along with great school programs have brought us here. School programs like the, Electrathon Cars, FFA, Reading Discovery, Show Choir, the wonder Dance programs and Art exhibits and the Focus on Student Learning with Technology starting at Pre-School; by far makes this District Unique.
