They try very hard even if they don't have alot of money to work with, the teachers are always willing to help the students.
As a student at MCHS I feel there is not enough school spirit (more like next to none) and Ms. Gina Linder is doing a good job of bringing the curriculum out of the mud, however the criticism by some teachers on students are quite harsh and judgment is very commonplace within the student-teacher environment. I feel this has a negative effect on the school as a whole. Could use some work but at least someone is trying to make it somewhere worth going.
I find that Murray County does not do enough to encourage the students and many drop out.This has alot to due with teachers who label students they take a personal dislike to from the start and the lack of the school to take steps to alleviate this situation.
Yet again a new principal, but no progress, same unprofessionalism in what is supposed to be a professional environment. My student does not play sports. We rate the school at at 3 at best because there are some very caring and professional teachers/aids. I have never seen anything like this administration or teaching environment in this country anywhere else.
Murray County High School is going through some tough times right now. But they are doing there best to fix all the problems that are happening. It has some of the best teachers in the state of Georgia and out of state also and the people that are criticizing the staff are just upset because their sons or daughters did not get to play in a sport. and it is not right because this is a great school and it needs to be recognized as a great high school because it is . Also the new principal that just came in this year Dr. Jason Doughty is a great asset to the high school he is a great man and he cares very much for his students and staff. He is just an overall great person and principal to have at Murray County High School.
MCHS has the potential to be a wonderful school. However, MCHS has the good ole' boy mentality. The school is trying to bring test scores up and dropout rates down. The problem lies within the lack of organization. To many so called teacher/coaches and not enough teaching. Parent involvement is none existent. The condition of the building is bad.
I think that Murray County High School is a great school and I love going to school there everyday. We have so much school spirit and its just great. The teachers there are the best they really care about there students the school actually cares about the students. We are are a fun school to be apart of I highly recommend M.C.H.S to anyone
This school has so much to offer students. There are areas that need improvement, but the administration and faculty are working hard to make those improvements. The key to change at this school is for the parents of the students to get involved in the education process. This school has much to be proud of and I wish that the community would realize what a wonderful rich heritage we have to pass on to future generations. I am a former student, a parent with a child currently enrolled and a teacher at this school and I believe in its potential.
I am presently in the 10th grade at MCHS. I love this school the teachers are excellent and I love going to school at MCHS. Our school has more pride than any of the three surrounding high school. Its a great place to go to school its a fun school. I would recommend Murray County High School to anyone its a overall five star school. I am planing to return after college. To be a teacher at the greatest high school Murray county High School.
