I really enjoy Minooka it is always a friendly experience every time you walk into school! At MCHS there are so many clubs and sports that you just want to try each and everyone one. They also have Joliet Junior College classes that way when you go to college you can get a head! At Minooka, other than the JJC classes, they also have a vocational school which you can choose to go to that way you can get a start on what you want to do with your life. I have attended this school for the last three years and now I am in my senior year of highschool I am taking a Joliet Junior College class for government and I am also taking Early Childhood Education at the vocational school GAVC, Grundy Area Vocational Center. This class the past two years has been extremely beneficial for myself since I want to go to college to become a teacher. Not only does this class get you ahead in the curriculum; however, it also gives you college and highschool credits! Overall, Minooka is a school for anyone.
Minooka Commity High School has provided me with a rewarding high school experience. I have had the opportunity to participate in a varitety of clubs and competive sports, while having access to advanced courses and educational resources. My school offers several honors and AP classes for students to take advantage of; these classes are taught by commited teachers that want to see their students succeed and will eagerly offer resources to excel in difficult classes. Despite the many excellent qualities of my school, its major downfall is its unfortunate history of racism. Located in a small Illinois town, Minooka does not have a diverse student population, resulting in disappointing instances of racial intolerance. For example, last year, one teacher was pressured to resign because a student's parent was uncomfortable with their child being taught by a black educator. Despite this disturbing event, I was proud to see the majority of students protest and speak out against racism.
I am currently a Senior at Minooka Community High School, and I have enjoyed all my years attending this school. Besides the good education, i participated in the superb athletics all 4 years at this school!
