i have been going to morton all four years of high school. i have never had a bad experience with any of my teachers, my classes, or other students. the theater department is an amazing place to be and so it the choir class. they really make you feel involved and make you feel like you belong there. it really does feel like home there. the food was very good and the change everyday is always nice. i never get to much work for my classes as they always consider what other homework we may have.

I think Morton has some amazing and invested teachers. My child has felt supported majority of her time there. My child has been able to grow with some of classes and programs that the school provides. Students can find many clubs that would there interest and help them grow through their school years. I find it hard to find a way to communicate to the teacher on a parent end. At times it is hard to find emails unless a teacher reaches out to you.

The worst part of going to Morton was the lack of safety, during my time at morton there were many threats to the school with school shootings and many times it felt as though administration did not take it as serious.I would like to see change in the school safety, I would also like to see change in the cleanliness of the school. We had rats run around the school many times and there would be roaches at the school. The best part of Morton is is how kind most of the teachers are they truly care for you as if you were theirs.

Horrible experience with registration. Returning Student information incorrect, deleted and no information available in skyward. Last minute notification. Horrible communication on what is actually the real issue other than robot calls with no actual specifics. No STAFF reaches out to you especially...

I have no complaining about the school. My daughter has plenty of opportunities to grow and all the teachers are great!
2/28/2022
I did not want to send my kid here at all but she’s about to graduate and she did just fine. She’s going to a decent college and i’ve noticed that most of the negative reviews are years old. This school definitely was really bad at one point but it certainly isn’t anymore! I definitely recommend giv...
