I Love Mckenzie High School. The teachers love the students here. If one is struggling they are willing to slow the class down and help you.

The one thing I like most about Mckenzie High School is that it is a small school. Everyone knows everyone, so the students are not just a number to the faculty members, they know our names. Even though everyone knowing everyone is a good thing it can also be a bad thing. All the students and faculty know your business. There is no point of even trying to have a secret because it will not stay a secret for long.
