I really like how all the teacher are nice but also know how to be proactive and how they know what they are teaching

Overall at McLean County, I have had both ups and downs. I have witnessed various intense where the football team is more heavily important than other sports, leaving smaller sports to dwindle away and not get equal time in the facilities.

The teachers would let students get behind and not help them catch up. The teachers would be extremely disrespectful.
