Forest grove has a great high school. Their classes prepare the children for college & the real world.
This school is small with a few teachers that care about their students. Although there are obviously some others that are there just to get by and do something else. Not much commitment at all. Great Band School
I concur with other reviewers on several points. I went to Banks schoools and had a great time, but it did not prepare me nor my classmates for the real world then, and it still comes up short. That's why my children no longer attend my alma mater. Despite a few good teachers the school is so small you are often stuck with the bad ones too. There are very few choices with teachers or curiculum. After graduation the success rate for those attending college is poor. You don't get lost in the crowd at Banks, but the downside is you are often locked into or out of a clique and there is never anyone new to meet. If you are just after a HS diploma and are going straight into the workforce it may not be a bad school, but for those looking at college there are much better choices.
this school is the best school to attend. free of gangs and drugs that you find at larger schools. and the music program is exploding right now. go braves!!!
