GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Although most of the time most the people in the school are very disorganized they have good intentions and know what they are doing.most of them enjoy their job even if they don't want to be there but they could keep the school a little cleaner but I blame the kids because they make it worse than it should be

My algebra teacher Miss Lute was just a substitute and I basically didn't learn actual algebra all year. They need to find real teachers to teach classes like that because otherwise none of us is going to be ready for next level math.

Deprives students of their education . The truancy officer constantly harasses students he chooses as his targets. Constant searches 1-3 times a week by dogs and cops violating students privacy . Low grading scores . This school should be shut down .

The geometry staff is stumped because when you report on something all they say is thank you and next day they never do anything.

Our daughter graduated in 2018 with enough AP and dual college credits to enter Purdue University as a second semester sophomore. Can't say enough about the positive culture and experiences she had at MCHS.

Michigan City high school teachers go over and above preparing students for college. Highly recommend this diverse, interactive school system to prepare kids for the "real world".
