I would like to see more diversity, better classes, and better food. Overall, there is a good community at MACS.

For five years I have trusted the teaching staff at McDonell Central Catholic High School to instill values and virtues in my children. I have trusted them to educated and prepare my children for post-secondary education. One of my son's has been an avid football player and has been selected as a First Team All-Conference Lineman both his freshman and sophomore years. All of my children have bonded with certain staff and have been met where they are with their educational needs. To say that McDonell staff has been willing to adapt does not seem to be enough. McDonell teaching staff and administration put effort into each individual student. The love that they have for the kids is evident in their everyday interactions.

He got an A the first time, but the school told him he would have to take the class again because "any other class he...

My daughter has shared major concerns with me about the bullying that is occurring to students who are not involved in sports. She has friends who have left, due to the bullying that has been overlooked by the athletic director and can't be stopped by a principal because they don't have one. I pray...
