I've been in the district as a whole my whole life. I can't say much about it my grade I'm graduating with are all amazing people I've had my bumps there's always a couple bad teachers but I don't see that as a problem as a school. I think the school food is something that was good but changed to worse and I wish for younger grades it becomes better. I'm a senior I've been at this school since kindergarten. I've had a lot of teachers/facility have a huge impact on me.

The things I liked about going to Melbourne High, is that I've met many people and with the good sports program I met friends that turned into family. The teachers around campus are very helpful and are willing to answer any question if needed. I know I am going to miss the high school life because there was never a dull moment at this school.

I like Melbourne High School. For the location, it is a very good school. It certainly is not the worst school, but some improvements could be made. The food could could be better. The facilities are not the best, but they do work. The education level is good, but I wish they offered more classes and more challenging classes.

My child is going to Melbourne High School and loves it! The teachers are, for the most part, excellent and try very hard to help the kids excel. The English studies program is super.
