I did not like how the school board handled the COVID situation. Kids need to be in school and in sports and keeping them out is destroying their health. Nice district but poor decision making.
I have went to school here my whole life and I have almost no complaints about the district. The teachers are great and the staff is all friendly. The buildings are nice and there are so many options for activities and extracurricular. As a senior, I feel ready to graduate and am proud to say I am from this district.
I transferred to the Millcreek township school district after middle school. Overall, I’ve had a great experience. The teachers are all super helpful, I haven’t had a bad one yet and I am a junior. There are some small things I would change, such as food, but overall I have had a great experience.
My experience with Millcreek Township School District has been very good.
Many of the teachers are execellent and enjoy their job.
Though the Robotics club i great, I find the club selection to be a bit lackluster.

My experience with my District has bee pretty good over. I like the feel and opportunities that they have given me. There is overall a large diversity in this district. I always found that I could meet some one new and learn something about them or where they are from. There are a large variety of classes that you can take when you get into McDowell High School. They get you to try may classes in may different areas to see what you are interested in.
This is my first school district and I have been enrolled in elementary, middle and high school in this district. I have had a great community experience as well as academic experiences. The Millcreek community District is very close knit and is always looking out for one another. They provide many opportunities to be involved and make it better for one another. I go to Mcdowell highschool and I think our school represents the friendly and welcoming aspects of the Millcreek community very well.
Very good education with teachers who care a lot. However, Township administrators don’t seem to care about the students or people living in the district.
I love how everyday my teachers and administrators come in with a positive attitude. They deal with a lot in and out of school but they always make sure we receive a quality education. The kids in the district are generally well behaved and I don't witness much bullying which is definitely great progress from when I was in elementary school.
I love MTSD, as I get many opportunities for clubs and extracurriculars. I fit in very well. I am able to get the education I need to be a successful individual in my future. I would love to see more focus on other topics, not just sports though. Much of the township is based on football and it doesn't give other extracurricular areas the credit it deserves.
Currently, I am a senior at McDowell High School. My journey with Millcreek Township School District started when I joined Belle Valley Elementary School for Kindergarten in 2005. I learned everything necessary in Elementary school as well as had great access to after school help. Middle School I went to J. S. Wilson where my work began to progress. By eighth grade I was an all A student. Now I go to McDowell and I am in all honors classes as well as an AP level class. Millcreek is really great at placing students in correct academic level and their teachers are amazing at helping students keep up and advance. Millcreek also gives you the option of joining dual enrollment as well as technical schools. I myself attend Erie County Technical School thanks to McDowell and its resources. I am in the Health Assistants Program and plan to attend college for physical therapy. I have very much enjoyed my experience.
The kids are pretty kind despite the obvious cliques that are formed, you can usually find someone you can connect with. The teachers are extremely thoughtful and give a good amount of attention to their students and their academics. Diversity is sadly restricting to any and all minorities but hopefully it has changed. College preparation is not as thorough and pushing as it should be, the standards are pretty low.
I feel that I have gotten a great education through the 12 soon to be 13 years I've attended schools in this district. The schools are clean, safe, and well kept. It's a good community with good teachers. There could be some improvement with the administration however.
After three academic years with one remaining year, I have realized McDowell has been a vision of the real world. Through each and everyday there is someone different that is met no matter if they are gay, straight, black, white , Asian, nor Hispanic there is always someone who has different beliefs than yourself which help bring culture and diversity. I appreciate the opportunity to help incline my knowledge on how other people think. However, I would like to see improvement with extra curricular activities such as clubs and such they are not promoted as much as for example playing a sport like football. Overall, I hope my final year at McDowell will be a luxurious one. Hopefully I can be the shining light and help bring more extracurricular to my hometown school.
McDowell is a school that has opportunities for everyone! I have had the privilege to get to know my teachers and administration on a personal level despite the large size.
Some teachers are amazing and some of the best people I have had the pleasure of meeting, but many teachers purposefully create stressful environments or don’t teach. I’ve actaully learned a lot through the 6 AP classes I’ve taken and the large school allows many opportunities that allowed me to get into honors programs and get many scholarships.
Good academics, many opportunities for students with wide range of interests, good performing arts, robotics and sports programs. It is safe. Don't care for the way administration handles certain situations with staff and students. Would love to see greater emphasis on language and the arts.
Millcreek Township School District is a wonderful place to go to school. I didn't realize how lucky I am to be a part of this school district until I started to visit other school districts across the country on Speech & Debate trips. Some of the schools we visited were a lot nicer, but many schools were much worse off than we are. Millcreek Township School District is truly lucky to be able to provide its students with a quality education in clean, safe buildings. And the teachers and administration at McDowell, in particular, are fantastic. They are are kind, open-minded and willing to help every struggling student who needs a hand-up.
