"Honestly, when I describe Henry Sibley to others, the words I use are 90% positive. Although there is noticeable racial and economic diversity, the thing I love most about Sibley is that it is as challenging as you make it. Teachers are incredibly helpful when you need some extra support, and the administration is generally accommodating. Ample extracurricular options on both an athletic and academic scale are an independent reason to consider attending Sibley. Although our football team is not as stellar as the rest of the teams in the conference, we make up for it in basketball, tennis, as well as a handful of other activities. The guidance department does receive some criticism, but a student can work around that. During the past couple years, the school has been completely remodeled which allows for great learning facilities. Overall, I love Sibley and wouldn't consider going anywhere else."

"Sibley is a very good school!! I've never had such a wonderful experience! I'm a cheerleader there and the school spirit is crazy!! The teachers are wonderful! There's a bit of racial tension, but thanks to a favorite teacher, Mr. Hanson, that is being stopped bit by bit. You gotta love it. It's an experience like no other!"

"I graduated from Sibley in '07 and I would have to say it provided me with a decent high school education. Specific departments need tremendous amounts of help; more specifically the math department (which completely failed me). The biggest problem with Sibley is that 5 cities (West St. Paul, Mendota, Mendota Heights, Lilydale, and parts of Eagan) differ income wise greatly. The kids coming from Mendota Heights and Lilydale are held back (as I was) by the poorer students attending the school. This is why there is such a high gang rate within Sibley; which is why the Zero-Tolerance rule is a must here!"

"This school was a nightmare. Most of the teachers are old and don't care at all about their subjects. A few teachers were ok but the majority failed to teach me anything. Too many students slip through the cracks. Extracurriculars are well run,however."
