Mumford is usually stereotyped by other schools as a bad school but after spending some time there i can say that it's a pretty chill, laid back, and clean environment thats nice to learn in.

Mumford is full of Administrators who don't want the best for you but act like they do. You could go to them with a problem thinking that they'd solve it but they'd laugh in your face. The food is disgusting, most of the teachers have bad attitudes with an exception of some. My experience was really bad.
