Mayfield Senior School Reviews

Mayfield is a wonderful school! Mayfield not only provides a wide range of athletics and conservatories, but also provides opportunities for service and courses that prepare you for the future. The faculty and staff treat the students and parents with care, as if they are family. Safety is not an issue at Mayfield, for there is a security guard at the gate who takes his/her job seriously and works to help keep the campus safe. Teachers make themselves available for students who need extra help, but there are also peer tutors. The college counselors are always around to lend a helping hand, wether it be teaching you how to properly mail a letter, give you a "pep talk", how to apply for scholarships, and much more! Mayfield provides many resources for help if one seeks them. The sense of community is outstanding and everyone looks out for each other constantly. Mayfield is a place of opportunity.

I love Mayfield Senior School! I have enjoyed going there the past three years, and I cannot wait to start my senior year! The community surrounding the school is incredible, and I have really enjoyed the atmosphere being at an all girl's school presents. One small setback is the lack of APs presented (I would appreciate World History and Psychology), but seeing as it is such a small school, it's understandable.
The academic challenge allowed me to be prepared for the college course work and maintain great study habits throughout the year. Mayfield was huge on allowing students to seek opportunities and allowing students to try new things whether it be a sport, an art of a different class. I would definitely advise mayfield to broaden their diversity and be more inclusive of students from different backgrounds. Though diversity has risen over the years, there is always room for improvement. Some classes could definitely be taught differently and with less bias.
