Parent: Freeman Academy has been a huge blessing for my family! I have two children that attend school there and it has been absolutely life changing. It is incredible to watch all of the students thrive at Freeman Academy! You really have to experience it to be able to understand it. One thing I know is that it is a wonderful feeling when your children "want" to go to school. Teachers are just fantastic! Freeman Academy is truly one of a kind!

O'Gorman High School

• Sioux Falls, SD
• 9-12
• 124 reviews

Niche User: Great school! Teachers are nice and students are serious about school. I think that attending O'Gorman has helped me a lot academically. However, making friends can be a little challenging because students have grown up around each other. I found it challenging to make friends at O'Gorman although I should have tried harder to make friends with them.

Brandon Valley High School

• Brandon Valley School District, SD
• 9-12
• 203 reviews

Junior: As a junior who has gone through freshmen and sophomore year at Brandon Valley High School, my experience has been very good. While I do think the school can improve in some areas such as readying students for college, creating a good work ethic for students and providing better facilities. The school still does have its upsides such as having good and supportive teachers, many activities that students can be involved in, a wide variety of classes for students to explore interests, and sports that unite all classes. With these things in mind, my experience at Brandon Valley High School has been more positive than negative.
