In my personal opinion the school lacks the diversity and policies that allow other schools to thrive as we are not as connected as we should be. I feel that if we had more engaging activities and clubs we wouldn't have as much problems that we have with school violence. I want to see change as many of our teachers and students leave due to not having any real personal connection with the other students or with the faculty.

Mclane is the best school; they are always willing to help you with any courses you failed. Also make sure your credits are on schedule for graduation. I am grateful to be a student at this school. They always welcome their students every time students entering the gates in the morning

Great school, has a lot of hidden potential and great teachers. Although it does have a bad history, these new generation of students are surely changing the campus in a positive way.
