Memorial has been a great school to spend 4 years at! It has brought me so much joy and has prepared me for adulthood excellently.

Memorial has lots of extracurricular and clubs that help students get involved within the school. I think that we have lot of resources but most all students don't know about it. I would say the worst parts of my experience was that I have had to deal with racism. Kids saying slurs and offensive phrases. I know lots of kids that go to my school and I wish to have more diversity. As a Hmong American student I want to see more representation, I want my teachers, admin, and other staff to look like me, or be more diverse. I don't dislike the staff now, but we could involve more people of color.

Memorial truly prepared me academically. Couldn't have asked for a better education, and in that regard it definitely deserves 10/10. I've had university classes easier than classes I took here. I would feel very comfortable sending my child here. The main downside is the cliques, and the difficulty...
