Milton High School Reviews
Rating 3.96 out of 5 525 reviews
My overall experience is pretty good. Orchestra and Marching Band are the best parts for me. I play bass in the orchestra and am in Colorguard during both the Marching Band and Winterguard seasons. The orchestra is improving every year in both skills and opportunities. Also, our teacher is amazing. The Marching Band has won Grand Champion at all competitions so far this year. It's hard work, and it takes up most of my time, but it is worth every second for all the skills I have gained including the improvement of my confidence. The worst part of my experience is that some of the new rules regarding safety feel like they go a little overboard. I fully understand why the rules are there, but the way they are enforced is overly strict, with no exceptions. The problem is that I have encountered things that should be exceptions but aren't, depending on the teacher/administrator. One of the few changes I would like to see would be getting recycling bins back, which we are working on.
I love it here. I play baseball, and it's a great time, and I love all the opportunities provided here. However, the administration has been lacking in-school experience in the past few years, but overall, the experience is excellent. My favorite part of the school is the prominent academics and large group of students; anyone can find their place here. My least favorite part is the lack of a school identity and the disconnected feeling I get when supporting the school.
Milton High School is the epitome of a truly well-rounded high school experience. The administration advertises the school as a "triple-A school," claiming the equal presence of Arts, Academics, and Athletics. As a student, I can confirm this is an extremely accurate description. I participated in the chorus program all four years, took high-level and superb quality academic courses, and competed with the equestrian for four years as well, acting as captain for two of those years. In my spread across different realms of the school, I am not unique as there are plenty of students who do the same. We are/were supported by the school from all sides, and no element of the school seems overshadowed by another; both the theater and football teams have won state championships or competitions, and students are sent to international science fairs and HOSA competitions yearly just to name a few accolades.
