My experience overall is pretty crazy. A security guard fought a student and we're pretty much everywhere on social media especially the student security guard. I wanted to do tons of different things academically with this school but as it turns out I don't think I'll be able to.

The best part of the school is the arts program. Many of the students are involved in the Hammond Academy for Performing Arts (HAPA). This program allows students to showcase their talents in the form of visual art, performance art, and musical art. Students' works are consistently showcased throughout the school to promote the program

I can't do half-stars, but I would give Morton a 3.5. As a sophomore, my experience has been pretty good with the school. I've had some good teachers and there are great staff members as well.

We need changes in how the building is run, how staff and security treat people, how discipline is determined etc...

Learning to pursue peace with ethn...

I am a former student of Morton (class of 1985). Since my real review wont get printed I will attempt to tell you how Morton will never be the as great as in my years. We had open campus lunch , we also had 55 min for lunch. We had shop classes that real men learned things in. We had cute girls who...

I am a former student. This school is a prison not some "Utopia of Choice" as its made out to be. How much choice can you have when you are watched by security cameras every minute!? How much choice can you have when you cant even choose your own clothes!? AND there are NO classes that teach LIFE SK...
