I think this school is horrible! My son's 3rd grade teacher told me it didn't matter if kids could spell words correctly but that they understood the meaning of words. She said that the computers the kids use shows them the correct spelling??? Am I missing something?? They don't have spelling tests at this school because kids forget the correct spelling after a couple weeks. I was a good speller as a kid due to spelling tests! If the school's Wi-Fi is down, don't expect these teachers to know how to teach. Without WiFi and electronics, the kids just get a day off fun at school. If you're a divorced dad, some teachers act like you're worthless.

My daughter entered MHS in her junior year, after we moved from the Cincinnati area where she had attended an all-girls Catholic high school her first two years. I was worried that attending a public school for the first time since kindergarten would be very hard on her, but the students and teachers at MHS were great and she easily made new friends. My daughter's confidence grew and she flourished at MHS, continuing her Straight A's streak and being named one of the many Valedictorians; ultimately receiving a Governor's Merit Scholarship for college as well. I cannot thank the staff at MHS enough for helping my daughter through a tremendous transition from private to public school, from Cincinnati to Marysville. Switching high schools is hard, especially into a tight knit community like Marysville-- but the students and community were great.

I am a student at Bunsold, and I had one or two good teachers, but most of them just stuck us on a computer program and at at their desks on their phones. Along with creekview, teachers barely engage with their students. Not many clubs or activities to choose from if your looking for something less generic and sports are very good, but can’t make the team unless you can afford a personal coach.

The principals don’t want to be held accountable for their actions. The only time you see them is when they want to find something the teachers are doing wrong— not to support in any way. There are no actual grades in this school so parents are actually confused on what their pupil knows or doesn’t know. There are no incentives for students to give their best when the only grade is the final test. This school sets the students up for failure.
