My highschool career has given me many opportunities with clubs and stem programs. I have been highly involved with my schools LAN club. I am able to connect with other people at my school through the variety of clubs and teams that are free to join. I have struggled with some minor bullying at my school. The administration does not take much direct action against it either. The best part of MTHS is the wide variety of dual credit and AP classes. I have taken multiple of these classes and am gaining an early start at college.

Metamora High School is a great place to get involved in both extracurriculars and career/technical education classes. There is a wide majority of classes outside of general education classes to take and learn from. The arts and music department is incredible and taught by amazing teachers. However, I do wish the school had more diversity. It can often be hard to find a group of people to become friends with.

I love Metamora Township High School and hope to raise my kids in this school district. There is an amazing teacher-student ratio, and the relationships that are created between the students and teachers is uncomparable.

I honestly feel that I am not cared about as a student at MTHS. Teachers never answer your questions, there are most definitely favorites being played (especially if you're a football player of cheerleader), students are unfairly assessed, and neither the teachers nor guidance counselors care about...

Teachers and administration truly care about each and every student. They are not only committed to the academic success of each student, but also his/her emotional well-being. As a faculty member, I can honestly say that teachers regard students highly with their actions and conversations inside an...

Parents beware!!! School scores are extremely low, suicide rates are high! These are not teachers or administrators that you want influencing your childs behavior or those that you would like to mentor your child. Your tax dollars provide a three D printer that costs are exuberant to run, but it's g...
