The public high school nearest to me has over 3,000 students and it is considered a very good school. They have more teachers than our small school, so the number of kids per class is still the same.
Have you clicked on the "Research and Compare" tab, on the green menu bar near the top of this page, to see how the schools near you really rate?

I grew up in a very small town my high school was about 500 strong. Senior year my parents brought me to AZ to live and to a school that had 2,000 students. Cultural shock aside it really was a better school, it had better funding for class materials, really fun activities going on all the time (my old school did not have the money for that). It was really fun and I felt academically it was better than my previous school.
