Mt. Zion High School prepares you well for the future and the teachers are amazing! I have received a good quality education and been able to be heavily involved in my school through sports and clubs.

Overall I really enjoyed my experience at Mount Zion High school. The staff is really dedicated to their purpose and our openly helpful. It is a great school with many opportunities for sports or club involvement. I have done cheer all four years I was there and always had a positive opinion about it. We often got quality materials that we needed and kind coaching. There is not much diversity around the school which is one thing that could be improved. All of the kids are very similar and we don't see much variation.
