    Midwest Central High School gave me the perfect opportunity to blossom as a person. I really came into my own. Even though they are a small town school, they were very accepting of those considered different. I never felt threatened as a member of the LGTBQ+ community, and I was even able to help form a club based on said community. All opinions were allowed, and discussion was always encouraged. I felt safe there, and I always knew that I had people to talk to if I needed.

    MCHS, overall, has really good teachers and staff. When approached, they are open to listening to new ideas.
    My experience with going to high school here was good. I had the ability to get close and have one on one time with teachers when I needed help. The biggest downfall was they didn't prepare me well for college classes. They didn't have many different options for classes.
