The bullying at our school I think use to be a lot worse i dont knowabout in the younger classes but in my class for the most part we get along now. The bullying in our school use to pretty bad the pricipal would come talk to us and nothng would change. The students were horible to each other and it was non- stop. There are police at our school every now and then but i dont know what for. We do not have police in our school unless there called in about something. We do not have a school nurse. I feel like out lockdown, and tornado drill is poor. Im sure its like most other schools but i dont feel save sitting in the hallway if a tornado was coming. I also dont feel safe walking across the street to the court house while the shooter is in a diffrent part of the school.
Some teachers are very good and have very good teaching skills. There are a few teachers in the school that have no control over the students in there class and have horrible teaching skills. I feel like one of the teachers i have has no intrest in the students and doesent really feel like being at the school. Overall the teachers are very aproachable and easy to talk to so they have good communication skills. I feel like some teachers play favorites so the grading is not always consistent.
What stands out with McCook Central is their music department and FFA Chapter (the FFA Chapter is one of the best in the nation and the best in the state). Students are extremely involved in extracurriculars and school activities.
