Old Orchard Junior High School Reviews

I'd like to start off by saying that OOJH is a great school. I've moved a lot and have been to about 5 different schools. I currently attend high school in Iowa. I went to Old Orchard my 6th grade year and it is by far the best school I've been to! The teachers there are great and are very experianced. The school is also involved in a lot of fund raising, which of course is good. They really get the kids involved in everything, I mean i remember always having something to do and staying for after school activities. I think that it's great that they divide everyone into Oracles and Olympians, it gives them more stuff to do like have Field Day which they compete against each other in.

I am a student at OOJH and it's a great school! the teachers are all good we learn a lot and have fun, we have sports teams and there is very little to complain about. THe only thing would be a lot of work and some other tiny misadventages that eveyr school has. otherwise i'm proud to attend OOJH it's a good school :]

hello! I am an eight grader at old orchard junior high. It's an okay school overall. I learned a lot in my math and science and language art class. the teachers are pretty experienced. There are not as much extracurricular activities as before. The level of parental involvement is high.
