I’m a graduate now parent and I would never send my own children to any other district. I’ve seen so much growth in the school and community since my time in school, and I thoroughly enjoy seeing the district as a whole improve and adapt. Noble High School now offers more educational tools, more extracurricular activities, more opportunities, and more resources for low income students than ever before.

Noble Public Schools is one of the worst schools you can enroll your child into. At the middle school and continuing into high school, my daughter was relentlessly bullied, resulting in having to change schools because the bullying was so serious. Numerous amounts of complaints were sent in from my family demanding that the staff do something about it, but they would refuse to and they would brush her off and tell her that she is making things up, even when she had evidence proving otherwise. They have no concern for the safety of their students or the status of the students mental wellbeing. Not only do they not care about the health of their students, their academic program is below subpar and will in no way prepare your child for college. Sports take over this school and the chance of getting a coach who teaches just so they can coach is highly probable. There have also been reports of teachers harassing students, so bad that if you ask any student they will probably know what’s going on. Noble is a terrible place to let your child go into school and we are not the only family who thinks so.

This school's teachers and administration work hard and care for students. NHS provides a small school feel with large school academic selections and extra curricular activities...for the most part. NHS is a 5A high school but it does not offer 5A selections like; Pom, orchestra, and other activities or organizations a high school student may want to take. Furthermore, many of the stakeholders feel like suggestions for school improvement fall on deaf ears. There are a lot of family and friend connections throughout the district which makes change difficult. Because of this mentality, Noble tends to get a bad wrap, as being "good-old-boy" or "backwoods" from surrounding communities. However, it is in my opinion, that Noble High School has great students, teachers and staff. As an educator, I know that some of the cliental Noble has can be challenging to teach. However, Noble does an outstanding job educating all students. Debating on moving to the Noble area? I would recommend calling the high school to make sure they offer the academic courses and extra curricular activities your child would like. If they have what you are looking for, do not hesitate to enroll.

Home away from home. The teachers care about each individual student and try to make each life better they come in contact with.

I have had three kids enter this school, they were the new kids but had no trouble fitting in. The kids were so nice to them. My kids never got into any fights or had any problems. Two of them went to OU, one has graduated, another is about to, the third has been accepted in and will graduate from Noble this year. They had no troubles academically and all of them did well on their ACT tests. I would like to say to those on the site who said their kids had trouble fitting in or got into fights, that's a parenting problem, not a school problem. If your kid was unable to make it at college, that is a parenting problem too. It's so easy to blame the school, it's a lot harder to look in the mirror. All schools have problems with fighting, drugs and sex but the blame is with poor parenting, take the time to know your kids from birth to adulthood and they won't get into so much trouble. My daughter told me this yesterday "Do you know why I'm such a good kid mom, never getting into trouble or causing you to ever worry?" "No, Why?" I asked... my 17 year old daughter said "Because I love you and I don't ever want to make you sad. I don't want to ever disappoint you." Enough said.
