McFatter Technical High School is an absolutely amazing school! The teachers and staff are very helpful and do their best to prepare the students for their futures whether they're going right into college or heading into the workforce. I found that the student body is also one of the best things about McFatter, not only is it a smaller school but the students are very welcoming and kinder than most would expect.

When I first came into this school, I was skeptical thinking I wasn't going to enjoy it. I didn't know anybody, however, as time went on I came to meet amazing friends and created a strong group that couldn't happen in any other high school. I'm glad to have chosen this with amazing teachers and a good but competitive student body. The communication could be a little better however, but overall a great high school experience!
I loved attending McFatter Technical College and High School, it was different than a regular high school but offered technical programs that were great stepping stones for the future once we graduated. Great opportunities! I would recommend anyone!
