My experience at Monarch High School was great. Throughout middle school, I was very nervous regarding the toughness of classes and making friends at a new school, but MoHi made it work, and more! The first day of Freshman year I immediately made friends that would last a lifetime. Everyone there was extremely helpful, especially the teachers. They knew that these high school classes were a lot more tough than middle school classes, so they let us acclimate to these toug classes exactly how each student wanted. For me, they did not assign too much for me to handle, and it allowed me to get used to the envirnment, and that helped me succeed in all of my four years here at Monarch High School.

Monarch is an extremely kind place. Every student, teacher, and parent is gracious, polite, nice, and friendly. Monarch is educational, entertaining, friendly and inviting, functional and innovate. It is a school that other schools strive to be like. The students have great spirit. The principal is very nice and smart. The district is very helpful and resourceful, and the teachers are overall amazing!
I love how much school spirit Monarch has. However, we really lack diversity and the school food isn't so tasty. Despite this, Monarch is an excellent place! There are countless clubs to join, all of which are very welcoming and fun! Additionally, many kids are involved in sports and other students love going to their games to watch and support them. Overall, Monarch is a good place to be, but there are definitely places it could improve.
