Senior: Becker High school gave me a fairly decent high school experience. I was able to connect with multiple teachers throughout my four years, many of whom shaped me into the person I am today. Along with that the athletics here are above average for example last year we sent seven teams to compete in the state tournament. The counselors at our school do a very good job providing ways to work though problems and reaching out to students if they seem to be struggling.... Read 176 reviews

Sophomore: Zimmerman is a great school! It gets bad rep for being in a small town, but everybody is great and the teachers are always willing to help. All school events are fun, especially the football games, and there is a lot of school spirit. There isn't a huge selection for classes, but there are enough classes to get what you want in an education. Something that may worry some people is that it's connected with the middle school, however, you do not see them very often as they have their own area of the school. I always feel safe when I come to school and do not feel worried about being harmed. The classrooms are just like normal classes as well as the other facilities in the school. The school just got a new auditorium and it is extremely nice. Our sports aren't the greatest, but you will be guaranteed to have fun in a loose environment if you decide to participate. Overall, Zimmerman High School is an excellent place to go to school.... Read 114 reviews

Parent: I graduated and currently teach at Big Lake High School. Much has changed since I was a student in a smaller community at the time, but BLHS has really stepped up in the last decade to genuinely become a school of the students, by the students and for the students. This is our principal's motto! We have built lasting partnerships with our community and in my 18 years in education I have never been more excited about the opportunities we provide for our students. The focus on college and career readiness is clear and as a parent I feel confident that my 3 children will leave Big Lake schools prepared to successful at the next level, whatever that might mean for them....
