This school has many helpful and loving teachers, but has an abundant amount of bullying. As an African American, Im sure I speak for the majority of us when I say this school system isnt very diverse. Ive personally been made fun of by not just students, but also teachers for my hair texture. Other students have also been bullied for having disabilities, and for their different sexualities. In conclusion, if you arent a straight white person, you can expect to be treated poorly by this school system.

I am an average 10th grade girl at MHS, and let me just say this place is the best of the best. The classes are well divided, the teachers are great, and student life is always fun. We have a great marching band and so many good people who support this school because they probably went here too. If you are considering letting your son or daughter go to this school, well that would definitley not be a mistake.
