I am a current student and I heard great things about this school and was really exited, but when school started, it wasn't as good as everyone said. I had a really hard time trying to get into the right classes, and they leave the students clueless a lot. it's great compared to alternatives, but it's really not a great school.

Both my children graduated from OHS and were successful in very diverse colleges, one with a degree from TESC and the other from Harvard. Principal Matt Grant has led steady improvements to what was already a fine school during his tenure, and my children found their teachers to be ever ready to help. They related better to some than to others, which is to be expected.

Administration is nothing to be proud of. Half the teachers actaully teach and help the students who struggle. Good academics but not a welcoming enviroment. I transferred schools because Oly was not somewhere I felt comfortable or felt I was getting all the help I could. It's okay.

I am an ex-student and a preservice teacher right now and I have to say Olympia High School prepared me well for college. Expectations are high and the teachers strive to help you achieve what you want to whether that be to go on to college or get your diploma and go into the work place. This is a top notch school and hope that my children will attend there someday and hope to be a part of the amazing teaching staff there as well!
