Though I had a lot of fun memories, there were a lot of issues that could have been fixed with effective communication. Communication was something that lacked a lot

Mount Vernon High School is a highly diverse community. The staff and faculties at Mount Vernon High school are welcoming, as well as supportive of the student. Throughout my high school experience, I always had respectful and kind teachers who helped me to do well academically. What I would change is making it more open for students to voice their opinion and have a real voice onto the decisions going on at the school.
