overall there are only a few teachers that will really pushed their students to be ready for college, the school focuses more on making sure students are not on their phones than focusing on getting better from and handing out big potions so the students are actually fed and not giving a snack basically.

My best experience at Mexico High School is the availability of 1 - on - 1 work with a teacher i can get especially for classes like chemistry and pre-calc. Having access to someone who understands what you don't is very helpful and the teachers are mostly nice. Sometimes they look at you like you're stupid but it's ok. The main thing I dislike about the school is how unfair it can be and how we are more prisoners than students here. Not me personally but from seeing the outside perspective towards other kids.

Overall a great school, there are a lot of programs for college readiness and specific career areas like art and music. The student body itself is diverse but could be overall safer.
