Some of the best experiences I had at my school were the bonds and friendships that I was able to make with others wether that was with faculty or students. The faculty was very open and kind and always ready to help. Many teachers also helped with improving my academics and cheering me on. My worst experience was the lack of creativity when it came to events and surprises. Also the strictness at times. I would like to see a change in the lunch menu, activities, and strictness.

Madison Central High School, overall is a really good school. The school is well involved with the community. Different fundraises are held almost every month. The students and school gather all together to help the community and those in need.

The only people who seem to complain about MC ar...
