The experience I had at Van Buren High School is wonderful. I'm currently a senior at VBHS and It is quite sad to leave this school soon. VBHS gave me so many opportunities that I couldn't be more grateful for. The opportunity to support the community through community service, to help my school and those in need, and to support the community through dance and the many activities and clubs I'm involved in. Not only have they provided so many opportunities, but they provided the best possible education I could ask for. There is this welcoming and calming atmosphere when you walk into VBHS. The teachers and staff members at VBHS show so much compassion for students. . The teachers have helped me with every little problem, from helping with college essays to opening a locker. There is this never-ending love, encouragement, and dedicaiton from the teachers. Every day I attend school hopeful and ready to learn something new. This school makes me feel safe, welcomed, and determined.
Really good school, graduated from there. Pretty great! Was on the Quiz Bowl team, has a lot of AP classes, teachers are pretty good. Would recommend.
The school has a good academic environment, however the administration is very disconnected from both what the student body wants/needs, as well as what the faculty themselves of the building wants/needs. The cafeteria has a good variety of food for students, although not much in terms of special dietary needs. Overall, the school is pretty good for the area.
