This highschool was definitely a good experience overall. The teachers and staff are great and they do a good job teaching the curriculum for every courses. They definitely prepare you for college and for everything you will need in your future. The school culture is good with theme weeks and lots of other fun activities that allow for good school spirit and connection. I definitely feel very safe going to this school and all the resources your need to have a good learning experience are provided for you. I don't have too many bad things to say about the highschool.

During the time I went to Morton High School, I was exposed to a lot of racism, sexism, and homophobia. The school and town lacks diversity and is set up to benefit Christian straight white men. A teacher was fired my junior year after I spoke out against her for being homophobic and racist but nothing has changed. It overall is a good education system but the administration, teachers, and students are hateful bullies and I am glad I left the town when I did.

The school boasts excellent academic prowess and has the scores, teachers, and environment to back it up. Though somewhat insular courtesy of being sandwiched in the center of a small town, the school easily competes with high-level private institutions.

We are very happy we moved into this district in 2010. The teachers expect the children to perform at a high level which will benefit them in the future.

As a Morton grad and now a proud parent of two teenagers, I can testify that this school district is well - versed in the requirements needed to successfully navigate post - high school life. The district provides its students with a solid basis to launch into under-graduate or technical institute e...

This school has very devoted teachers. The administration tries to accommodate the most ambitious needs of students in terms of curriculum and scheduling. To bad that school doesn't have a pool and more tennis courts.
