Oak Ridge High School was a wonderful academic place to attend. College was exponentially easier than my peers who went to other schools.

Oak Ridge is a very challenging but rewarding school with some amazing teachers. It prides itself with being one of the best schools in our area. Along with the best school leads to tough classes with lots of homework. They push very hard for everyone to go to college even though many of them want to go into trade schools or the military instead. Many parts of the school are old resulting in ceiling leaks, bad smells, and bats as well.

There are a lot of opportunities at this school in all fields We are so fortunate to have a robust arts program. The staff is stellar. The facilities were renovated recently; although there can be some variety in temperature.

My experience at Oak ridge high school has been fabulous. I have met many people of many different values. The school also has a high standard for academics which makes it challenging and worth while.

Teachers that care, academics that challenge, and a peer group of (mostly) intelligent and decent people. A stem school that still cares deeply about fine arts and hosts, in my opinion, the best band around.

The educational aspect of Oak Ridge High School is excellent. Most teachers prioritize their students, yet being a public school, it is more intimidating than other high schools in the area. Despite that, my overall experience playing sports and attending school here definitely improved my college readiness.

I enjoyed the freedom we were given. However, they were very strict about off-campus and phones and it didn't help the students but stressed us out more. The teachers are great though because many times I needed support and my teachers were always there to help.

There is a smoking/ drug issue along with a lot of bullying and school bias. Besides that Oak Ridge for the most part is family friendly and has nice parks.

I like that the school has many options for course work and that the school has several options as well for sports. The school itself is very diverse and provides STEM curriculum.
