We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The best parts is the teacher teaching and preparing us for a Better and bigger future but the worst part is the administration cause the things they say and their rudeness and best part is the clubs and the sports plus the Coaches even if we're not doing sports they'll talk to us and put a smile on our faces and make our days better days and another worst part is the no phone yeah it's rude to be on them while the teacher is Teaching but if we're in a situation and nobody is around and we don't have a phone who can help but the best part is making friends and socializing with people there's good and bad but just have to see it through but the school is good coming from the heart is a lot more but this just a little coming from the mind

The time I have spent at Mary G Montgomery High school has been a very rewarding experience. I started off as a "quiet and shy, reserved " freshman student and blossomed into this butterfly that became captain of Color Guard and a member of NJHS, member of Student Government, volunteering for various organizations, and a peer tutor. I have made many friends and will always cherish the guidance I received from my teachers.

What I love about MGM is the student involvement, with amazing pep rally's and sports. We have a program called Montgomery maniacs where we pay to get free admission to all the sports. The school loves to show school spirit with all.

I graduated from MGM in 2013. Both my parents graduated from there, and my sister is a senior this year. I have some very fond memories from there, but it's only because I made myself participate in things like band and drama. The amount of teaching that is done depends on who it is. Some teachers w...
