A good diversity school. People from all around the culture have them. You will get to learn so much and the teachers are very much helpful.

Mather honestly has had a bad rep over the past few years but the new principal has done a lot and is moving Mather in the right direction (although could be better). The AP teachers are stellar here and if a student takes school seriously, Mather is easily one of the best schools in the neighborhood.
