Has a lot of work to do on preparing students for college. I feel as though they could get a lot further. If they had the parents more involved with their child's education.

Mifflin has an amazing academic program with many AP classes to take advantage of. The hardest part of this school though is that the admin does not listen to the students as much as they should. Most of the time it feels like the students opinions are not valid or good enough. Other than that it is a good school

My overall experience of governor Mifflin is average I was only here for two years but during those years I met lifetime friends and participated in so many school functions but it was a normal high school.
