Mesa High School

Mesa HIgh is the best school around!! Students accept anyone that comes there way. Even though..we are a VERY diverse school. BUT its awesome because that is how the real world is. The spirit is great too.... I wear my Mesa High shirts with pride-anywhere I go. The school dances are bomb. Stuco is amazing and puts SO much effort into everything the school is involved in. Everyone is happy and has a great day. I suggest everyone goes to Mesa! You WILL love it. LIke I do. (:

Mesa High is amazing! A school couldn't get anymore diverse, and yet the students are so accepting of each other! There is also an incredible amount of spirit and tradition along with A TON of clubs and other activities, which most of the students are excited to get involved in. The assemblies and events that the student council put so much effort into are magnificent! The fine arts department is awesome, athletics are awesome, the faculty is awesome...basically, let your child go here. I am a proud alumni, and I fell in love with Mesa High. I'm sure your child will, too.

Communications are entirely lacking, can't get anyone on phone to discuss issues, When going to superintendant issues are not dealt with, saying they 'talked about it' like that is a fix to problem. While many teachers are great and go above and beyond, other teachers are inept and the administration does nothing to fix the problems. Over 1/2 of student body sat in courtyard and lobby 1st 2 days of school, due to scheduling issues. Teachers constantly complain they lose teaching days, yet admin would not come in a few days prior to deal with issues to keep situation from happening. They don't respond to phone calls. Students on special programs left stranded with no transportation, school calls telling you your child is skipping, after validating and verifying with teachers it takes me driving to school, taking principal to class... where my child is sitting! Tip of iceberg!

I was very iffe about sending my child to Mesa High because I heard it was a 'ghetto', and it had alot of gangs in the school. I was very satisfied 100% with this school. The kids are amzing and very respectful. The teachers are very good teacher's and have taught my son everything he is going to need to succeed in life. I love Mesa High! It is definitly the best school in Arizona! I am a very proud mother.

The student government at Mesa High School is the best I have ever seen. I have lived in CA, MD, MA, and outside of the country. None compare. I am a proud alumni.

I attended mhs all 3 years, and i can assure you, that a large part of who i am today can be attributed to the good people of mesa high. No matter who you are, what you look like, how much money you have, or what grades you get, there is a place for you at mesa. Mesa high may struggle with demographics, but the students are better for it. My first week at school, the principal stopped me on my way to class, simply to learn my name and welcome me to the campus. I could hear it in his voice; he cared about me. It is his stewardship over the school that influence the other faculty members to act in the same hospitable manner. There is great power behind a school that can withstand the opposition of a changing world, MHS will continue to stand tall and carry on!

I would have to say that this is one of the best schools I've ever been to. I made It a priority to get to know the AP teachers I knew that I would have and they were amazing. It may not be the most updated campus, but the tradition of excellence that it carries is extremely noticeable. I'm also in orchestra and the teacher helped us get a superior with distinction in ABODA festivals so its no doubt we have a great music program. Overall an A+. You can really feel cared about by peers, counselors, and teachers and I love it here!

if you aren't part of the religion, then you pretty much are a loner unless you have other friends. i was ignored many times at mesa high by the 'seminary' students. staff should do something about that problem. otherwise the school is an excellent school. it provided me with great classes both in regular, college prep, and advance placement. it has great traditions that have been around for more than 100 yrs. i would really recommend this school with anyone that has great school spirit. Carry on Jackrabbits!

Mesa High School provide my children with the education foundation thta they need to succeed in furthering their schooling and their live. The teachers are exceptional and really care for their students. It is the diversity of the school that makes it what it is today. I would recomend Mesa High to anyone.

generally, an okay school thought it's aging and does not have the support that it once did. A good teaching staff, dedicated people, but highly segmented student body. The school is in a transition period.

I am currently a senior at Mesa High, and even though it isn't an 'A+' school, the diversity, culture, programs, extra-curricular activities, and the strong leadership skills learn here will forever cherish everyone for a lifetime.
