  I am a graduate of Arthur voting class of 81. I have been a volunteer here for many years. I presently supervise the weight room after school. The school is wheelchair accessible except for the weight room.

  Arthur Voaden is a wonderful place, filled with diverse, beautiful and friendly people and is very large. They have amazing courses, and also offer a higher chance of earning a scholarship. They also have a great football and cheer team, with the cheer team going to nationals every year. 10/10 would recommend. They also have great cafeteria food. Do your kids a favor and send them here. The teachers have a great sense of humor, are direct with students, and can easily connect and bond with them. If you take cosmetology courses, you are paid to provide salon services on students. The stereotypes about Vikings being addicts, teen parents, alcoholics, and criminals are completely false. For the students that do smoke, there is a designated spot for them to smoke, away from the school. My whole family has attended here, including myself. Voaden is amazing! Whatever you do, don't send your children to St.Joeseph's or Central Elgin. Really though, Arthur Voaden is an amazing school!

  Worst highschool in st.thomas, stick to good old Parkside, much better sports program and student body overall unless alot of things have changed since I was in school which very well could be esp since they boarded up the woods and now make the kids hangout at railroad tracks on breaks and lunch..not to mention the public school right next door which I won't even get into here but back to voaden...I'm sure not every kid that goes here will end up a junkie, alcoholic, criminal, teen parent drop out but a high percentage will and it may sound harsh but unfortunately it's the sad truth no matter who wants to hear it, trying to put an honest review here about what I know about places around town
