    Middle College High School is a high school that is immersed within a community college. The students that attend this high school are able to take college classes as well as high school classes simultaneously. This, in turn, leads to the opportunity of being able to graduate high school with a diploma and AA degree. This school really prepares you for college! I would really recommend attending this school!

    Unique experience. I didn't get the typical "high school experience" that everybody wants, but the class of 2020 really did make it memorable because most of the class are trying to do big things after high school, so they take on many leadership roles and let their opinions know while being considerate to others.
    Transition from Manzanita Charter school to Middle College High School was a change in not only work load but responsibilities. From what you here you would believe you have to over work yourself, that's false. Use your freshmen year to get into the school culture and join clubs and work on procrastination if you do procrastinate. Overall, I enjoy attending this school.
