    Metamora offers several options for extra curriculars. They also have a lot of help available for people who might need more than the average. However, Metamora High School does not have an adequate Honors Program in many subjects, and a majority students in Honors classes do not feel challenged. The environment of the school can seem almost hierarchical at times, and the administration does not treat everyone the same. There is very little cultural diversity, but being in its area, this makes sense. Overall, Metamora is an average place for education.

    I definitely received an excellent education at Metamora Township High School. My teachers made sure to give me all the resources I needed to succeed. The school in general gives students plenty of resources for anyone's needs. I like how Metamora makes sure there is equal opportunity for everyone and they have something to offer for everyone's taste. I felt very safe while attending Metamora because we had a cop on campus at all times to ensure the student's safety. I definitely would want to bring my own children to a school like Metamora. I benefited majorly by being able to attend Metamora Township Highschool.
    Great teachers and kind faculty! Some parts of the building were very outdated, though they are working to improve. Safety has improved within the past year! College readiness depends upon the student and their willingness.
