MBHS! Such a solid community. The school, teachers for sure, do a great job. Keep up the great work!

I love Morro bay high school. It's such a small school that it feels like everybody knows each other, and that's creates a really kind and close knit environment. The school itself is very well maintained and is beautiful. Overall Morro bay high offers a truly positive experience for students and staff alike

MBHS has incredible teachers who go the extra mile to engage students. The administration is very supportive of boosting college readiness and increasing club involvement. The student culture is non-competitive. I hope MBHS will increase funding for academic clubs and add more AP classes.
