The school is small so you know most of the students in your class . Teachers are very friendly. School is starting to get more clubs and is starting to upgrade out dated policies and equipment. Great school.

Byron High School doesn't adequately prepare students for college with the courses they offer. The teachers do not put the effort in and the discipline is either none or too harsh. The only sport they focus on is football, though they offer other activities the funding goes to football. While I know it is a small school (400 or less) there is only 1 bathroom for each sex. It is in need of upgrading as well. The class sizes at 35 students is too large for the teachers to effectively teach and/or control. I would seek other education if possible.
