arcanum high school is just like a christian school... drug and alcohol problems... i would not send your child here
Arcanum High School is fine academic institution. It's small size allows students great teacher to student ratios and more one to one time with teachers. Parents and community members are highly involved in both curricular and extracurricular activities. This year's Ohio Graduation Test results were the best in all Darke County schools! AHS met ALL state indicators. Students scored: 96.9% proficiency in citizenship, 91.6% in Math, 100% in Reading, 96.9% in Writing, and 94.8% in Science
Acanum High School offers a creatively and intellectually stifling environment. Course selection is minimal due to the small size of the school. The faculty seem largely uninspired and obtuse, often deliberately so. The guidance office has bungled sending information to the right school for at least 2 students I know of in recent years. As the school is largely made up of protestant christians, public prayer is a common occurance. A local minister lead prayer at graduation every year, even over the objection of students. Strict dress code and punishment procedures create almost a militaristic environment. The science teachers cling to their personal beliefs in creationism. If you are looking for a free public school that is as close to christian private school as it can be, then look no further, this is it.
