Overall, throughout my four years of high school attending Mattawan High School, I have had a great opportunity and education obtained from the school. The teaching staff and student body is super supportive and keeps the building safe and always giving help and support. I have also been a part of the soccer program within my high school for all four years and was very pleased by the support and time given to build up the program and keep it, along with other sports, seen as important as the real core classes themselves. If I could change anything about the Mattawan High School system, it might just be adding the fact of having more help outside of the school day. This might include student help and advise when needed, or a border tutoring system given through the school as I have personally experienced high stress from school at certain times.
Mattawan High School consists of a staff that wants the best for their students. During the pandemic and these challenging times, teachers and administration are doing the impossible to give their students the best education that they can provide. Teachers especially are giving up so many things and having to deal with so many changes to their usual material in order to improve the students' experience this year. This shows the extraordinary teachers and administration at Mattawan High School. Their facilities have allowed students to have hot-spot availability at home, technology availability at home, access to free school lunches, and cleaning facilities to keep the school as safe as possible for those that are choosing to go. At the high school, the PALS program ensures that everyone feels safe in our community, and they provide peer facility as well as adult facility. Overall, Mattawan High School does an amazing job to provide an exceptional academic education.
I would say Mattawan is slightly above average compared to most schools. Academics is certainly the strong suit here, as mostly everyone that I knew did well at Mattawan and is doing well after. I would say the worst aspects of this school social aspects and the teachers. Groups in this school are very cliquey, and bullying was a common issue that goes unnoticed. There are many good and bad teachers, but the biggest issue that many students face is stress and huge workloads. Classes can be very difficult at this school, especially for English classes. Most students that knew who were pressured to succeed by their family and those around them found it very stressful when given way too much homework and graded harshly on assignments. Also, on a final note, the band and choir are the best programs at this school, yet they are drastically underfunded compared to the sports teams. Overall, I believe this school is improving and will someday be great.
