GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My years at McMichael have been up and down. Sometimes i love this place and am going to miss it once i'm gone other times i can't wait to leave. the safety has gotten better, my freshman year i was almost scared to come to school now i feel quite safe. The teachers staff and students are great but sports, involvement and activity wise were lacking.

This school seems to be pretty neglected. The arts programs are basically non-existant because more money is spent on the sports teams than anything else.

So far my experience in this school has been going good and bad for the record is that there are so many things going around this school that nobody knows about was by having a good spirit of expertise and also having the great experience of being part of this school rather than having to deal with a lot of things going on throughout their life and living struggling around. Although we strive with success and also becoming creativity for the time being that we are having to experience in this school.
