After spending four years at Menlo School, I've created great relationships with both students and teachers. Teachers are extremely helpful and supportive to their students, especially to those involved in the sports and arts. As a student at Menlo, I always felt supported throughout my high school career because my teachers were always there for me. When it came to my season, my teachers were always wanting to help so that I could balance both my academics and sports. Along with other staff members, they were also supportive throughout my high school career, they were always checking up on how I'm doing outside of school. The student body at Menlo is very welcoming. The sports team at Menlo allows for both under and upperclassmen to mix and get to know each other. Menlo students are very energetic and full of spirit when it comes to spirit weeks and other school spirit competitions. Though every year, you can expect that every year the seniors win every competition. I loved Menlo!!!!
As both an alum and a current parent of Menlo School, I can say that it is a very special place. Menlo provides so many wonderful things, but one that stands out the most is its teachers. I have never seen a faculty so dedicated, interesting, involved, passionate and caring as the ones at Menlo. They are top notch and provide an education unlike any other. They truly make Menlo so incredibly special and prepare its students for not just college, but life beyond school. I am beyond grateful to have been a student at Menlo and to now have my children at Menlo.
While I may not have personally had the most amazing experience at Menlo, I cannot deny that it is a phenomenal school. The teachers that I had during my time at Menlo were the most passionate and inspirational people who care so much about their students, not just as students but also as people. While the school is somewhat lacking in advanced humanities classes, the programs for people going into STEM are absolutely amazing. Menlo was undoubtedly difficult both academically and socially, but going into college, that meant I was more than prepared. Thank you to Menlo — even though they weren’t my favorite, my 4 years at Menlo prepared me for college in ways I didn’t realize until I got here.
