My favorite part about my experience at my school are the passionate teachers that make school more positive. I would like for there to be improvement on some areas of the STEM department and I would also love more access to AP courses.
4/9/2025
Going to May River since my freshman year, I have noticed how the teachers truly care for you. Not only do they put your academics first but yourself they want to be there to help you throughout your high school experience as everyone knows that can be a hard. We have our administration who helps keep us safe. They are there as someone to always talk to I would not choose any other school if I had the choice as may river is also very safe public high school.
12/6/2024
I think the school has so much to offer. You can graduate early or take dual enrollment classes to help you get an early start for college. They provide lots of resources for students to help them after high school. I don't like that there is so much violence but I think all the violence in school has stopped except maybe threats from students.

We love May River High School. The staff and teachers are all so friendly and helpful. I can't recommend enough
9/29/2025
The principal is very vested in the school environment and making sure the faculty and students are in a safe environment. Disrespectful behavior is not tolerated and students are there to learn. There are many clubs and sports activities so students can find something that works for them.
