Rockcastle County High School Reviews (2024)

Rating 4 out of 5

Overall, I have really enjoyed my time at Rockcastle County. It has been a pleasure being a Rocket. The school spirit that we have is undeniable. Going to a football game, and hearing the kids will send a shiver down your spine. The teachers are amazing, and understanding. The worst part about the school is the attitude of some of the students. Because of this, it made my last few years of highschool slightly unenjoyable. I would like to see more people being positive at school. Other than that, Rockcastle has been a great place to grow up.

It has been a wonderful experience making friends and some role models have shaped the way I think for the better, physically and mentally. But some of the teachers seem like there only there for the pay check and the mostly invest into sports like basketball and football.

My experience with high school in Rockcastle county Kentucky is ok for the most part although I would like them to reach out more and help students more. I have ask numerous times about help with college stuff and I never get anything in return. I would also like for them to do more with the students the most they do is football games or basketball games. The school and the staff are very nice and the teachers usually support their students but some of the teachers and staff want nothing to do with them and are very rude.I would love to see a change in all of these things I feel as though they could be a really good school and if the just fixed a few things they could make it such a better and successful school.

Since I have been enrolled in RCHS, I have had a great experience. I have learned a great deal and my future has never looked better. The only thing I would change is that I wish other students would take their work more seriously.

Rockcastle County High School has truly helped me develop as a young man and leader in my community. I participated in my school’s FFA and JROTC organizations and made incredible friends that will last throughout my life. I enjoy the teachers I had and the work they put in to ensure a good education for their students. The best parts of the high school are how involved the clubs are. In addition to that, the worst parts of my experience was during freshman year when I had to search for the right clubs and friends to join. I was a little lonely at these times, but after finding FFA and JROTC, I made quality friends and truly enjoyed coming to school. If I could see one thing change about my high school, it would have to be with the amount of students actually willing to work. I imagine very high school deals with this, but some kids are just trouble makers, and I’d like to see students have a desire to learn instead of a desire to stir people up.

To start, I've always felt at home in Rockcastle County and was so excited to finally reach high school. The teachers are more than welcome to help anyone in their educational goals and are interested in advancing a student's potential. I know from my experience that our teachers like to have an enjoyable time and do many class activities, like math contests and making restaurant tier lists. The school hosts various contests as well, like an olympics style event every fall and "grade battle", where the four grades send representatives for various competitions every spring.

For change, I'd assume all schools are like this, but I would like to see students have more of a desire to learn and apply what they learn. I know that here we have some rowdy students that just disrupt class for the fun of it. Teachers send them out, but it's easy to tell that those students never really mature in their lifestyle.

In conclusion, I love Rockcastle and I'm sure you will too!

My experience with Rockcastle High school has been pretty average, they have some good teachers and they have a good amount of administration. One of their drawbacks in their food, their hotdogs are pink in some places and discolored in others. Their sides like corn or green beans get mixed together and it makes it nasty whenever they are handing it out. The lunch lady’s are extremely kind though.
