6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy children and I love this school. Their academic expectations are high, the teachers are sensitive and driven, the office staff friendly, and other staff helpful as well. My children do well in this school. There are occassionally problems with peers (as is expected in this age group), but they are quickly resolved. If one of my children is falling behind, I am quickly made aware and the teacher and I work together to get the child back up with the rest of the class. I love this school and I love this town. You will find the friendly small-town atmosphere carries over into the school.Parent Review14y ago - Merkel High School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe only real saving grace for this school are the teachers. Don’t get me wrong, there are some awful teachers, but the ones that are good are the best teachers around. Bullying is a major issue here, academics are encouraged to be bare minimum, and if you aren’t in an extra curricular you will suffer.
