Mendon Middle/High School

If Mendon is the top school in the state, why are so many of their graduates in foundation type courses their first year in college? This school places far too much emphasis on athletics, or should I say football, and not so much on academics. it is getting to the point where you can tell the teachers are a bit fed up also. Apparently, it is also more important to have a full-time athletic director job filled (with 2 part-timers), than to have a full-time guidance counselor. I say kick sports out of the schools-how much money wouldbe saved then? Let the town take over-as they do in Europe.

I once attended mendon middle/high school and thought that the guidence counselor was of no help. Football players could do whatever they wanted. There is no class to help you plan for your future, for instance there is no classes for engineering or health. (except for the basic classes that everyone take.) I thought the teachers were great people but not great teachers.

The Principal is still learning his way in the short time that he has been at Mendon. But, he has a good attitude and should fit the position very well in the near future. All of the teachers seem to care about the academic and well-being of the students. The school is coming along very nicely after recent renovations.

It is my opinion that Mendon Schools is providing a good education and a variety of extracurricular activities for the students attending. Mendon takes a proactive approach to discipline. The teachers are involved in extracurricular activities giving the students good role models.
