I loved how the school comes together as one. I love how nice and outgoing all the teachers were. They really motivated to better in highschool because they really care and want to see you succeed.

I believe that high school is partially what you make of it and partially the resources accessible to you. McGehee High School had the basic foundation to cultivate minds and has since improved the learning environment. It is a smaller school, but very diverse.
