This school is one of the best because their environment is so good. All the students are so friendly and helpful to the new students or foreigners. I can say that I'm really going to miss this school. Mr. Potts is so nice and Mr. Heard too, they know what they're doing and I would never change high schools. One a Tiger, always a tiger

All these reviews on here are rather old, so let me tell you how it is now. I'm a sophomore there, I started at String town my freshmen year, and I was terrified. I'd never been to a public school and I knew nobody. But that first day, I've never felt more welcome. The kids at Stringtown are amazing! The teachers will go out of their ways to help you if you ask, and the staff there are super nice people. The lunch food isn't the best but it certainly isn't the worst, and you can walk to the store if you want. Overall if you want a great school to send your kids to, this is the place. I love it here, and most the kids here do. It doesn't get better then Stringtown. Mr. Potts and Mr. Heard know what they're doing. Trust 'em.

We just recently moved here from the great state of Texas. The faculty is severely uneducated. My son has severe dyslexia and they offer him no help. They just hand him work and expect him to know how to do it. Hoping to relocate this summer. DO NOT bring your children here. Everyone is so illiterate and absent minded. If i could give negative stars i would.

My child went to Stringtown for one year. For the first time in his/her school career, he didn't pass all of his/her state tests. Teachers are very concerned for their own children, but many (no all) are just marking time until retirement. Parental involvement is non-existent until they are yelling and cussing from the stands during basketball games. Struggling students are given no supports, and gifted students are given no challenges. I was repeatedly told, "This is the way it's always been done, so this is the way it will always be done." If you read the other parent's review, beware. If the parent's spelling and word use is any indication, his/her child is struggling already. The parent is right. His/her students could not make it in another school district. The standards here are too low. The next school would probably make that student repeat one or more grades.
