My experience at Mount Carmel has been very rewarding. They have classes for every type of students needs and match the classes for the best success. What I would change in the school would be for the teachers to be able to discipline the students better. Sometimes it was hard learning in the classroom with other students being disruptive.

The school is ok, The teachers are ok for the most part some will yell 24/7 for no reason. The main problem is the students, almost everyone is rude, wont listen to the teacher, and bullying is a problem that they say isnt. There is about a fight a month, and vaping was a problem for a while.the school over all isnt that bad just the people in it.

well considering i have been a student since pre-k i have been through a lot of stuff here at the school. being a senior i have been through a lot and the on thing that really concerns is the safety of the students. we do have a metal detector in the school but not every one goes through it. So that is really concerning to me. Also some of the staff here could use improvement because you can ask some teachers for help and they will tell u to go get help from a fellow student and sometimes they don't even know whats going on

As an alumni of MCA who continued their education at a collegiate level, I can say this school failed to provide me with a great education. I was in honors and AP classes, and even then struggled when I continued my studies. Many teachers failed with actually teaching, and I feel as though they did...

Some teachers are great at teaching and I love their class, but overall the school doesn't provide a great education. They need to focus on education instead of re doing the football stadium and putting in a new track every 6 months.
9/27/2010
I feel the school is more worried about sports and teaching a testm when they should be worried about the teachers ability to capture the students attention. I am very concerned that my children may have to attend this school and I can only hope to move before it is to late.
