3/4/2025
Martin Luther King High School has been a great learning environment for me. I have been able to build up my knowledge throughout my years here. King provides so many classes like APs and office hours that helps me prepare for college and to encourage their students to perform better. The only "bad" part is due to the school having so many students (more than 3,500) racism or bullying is more common to see. The administration is also pretty bad. They're slow and are quick to judge a student from their appearance.

I love my school overall. The teachers are supportive, and the campus is great. However, I think we could improve by increasing diversity among students and staff. This would help create a more inclusive environment for everyone. where people from different backgrounds can feel seen and represented. It could also encourage new perspectives and ideas, making the school community even stronger.

The school isn't that bad, its considered one of the best in the area, but it can be really dirty and the kids don't care all that much about their education, but that's not the school's fault.
