School Reviews
5 2/10/2014
The WHOLE staff is very supportive of the students, from the janitor helping a student with a math problem to the school board members helping tie a child's shoe in the hall. Unlike a lot of schools... if you did not earn a passing grade in a class you do not play sports or any other activities. There is no excuse that they can use (i.e. did not understand, could not get help etc). I drive about 80 miles a day just so that they can go to school there. I am extremely proud of the fact that I have 3 kids that attend Canadian. My husband had a job offer that the pay was double what he makes now. He turned it down because we would have to move out of state.
