The teachers at Mayfield are all great and care a lot about their job and students. They were the best part and are all knowledgeable and passionate about their work. The worst parts were the food and social engagement. I'd like to see Mayfield High School include more programs for students to meet and network.

Very happy with Mayfield High School. Calm, friendly atmosphere with opportunities to grow in responsibility and wisdom while having a bit of independence. Really happy so far. Nice blend of options for sports, the arts, tech and clubs. I feel any student can thrive here. Special thanks to the gifted intervention staff-excellent.

Mayfield has a lot of opportunities for students to get involved within the district with volunteer, athletic, club, and academic opportunities. Some teachers are better than others, but overall most of them are great.
