I am very blessed to be able to study in the Morton School District, the high school specifically. There are endless amounts of amazing programs offered at the high school, I am involved heavily in the fine arts side of things and the staff and students couldn’t be anymore amazing! We have an amazing staff at MHS full of very kind teachers who you can tell want to see the students succeed. The counselors in the office here at MHS, have helped all the students since the moment they stepped foot in the door and they even help you create a four year plan to help ensure that you stay on track for your life/career goals. The school is very clean and safe and I am so happy to be a student here.
Mostly young, driven teachers that are devoted to their jobs and love to help the next generation. The education that the students receive is one of the highest in the area with students receiving top scores and great grades. The school is nice and the area is great. My overall experience at Morton was amazing. There are so many clubs, organizations and athletics to keep you busy! The school offers foreign languages and clubs such as FCA and Key club, but there are so many to choose from. The athletics there are great! Many of the teams have gone to state multiple times. Overall, it is a great school with a great staff and great students.
Morton High School is mostly average. We don't have much diversity (which makes sense for central Illinois), we don't have many AP or Dual Credit classes, and most of the teachers are average. The school focuses much more on marching band and sports instead of theatre and orchestra, but I'm thankful that we do have an orchestra and theatre program, and both programs are very well run. Though Morton is average right now, they're working on adding more high-level classes, more clubs, and opening up more community engagement opportunities for students every year.
