8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe came to Morton hoping to find a conservative Christian environment for our child. We found no Christians but a bunch of highly aggressive and insular Pharisetical bullies.They would not accommodate our gifted son in math. His MAP score dropped from 290 to 260 under the instruction of their 20 year old teachers who are there based upon a town wide buddy system.This system is toxic to outsiders. My son has olive skin and when he joined track a group of wrestlers took bets on whether they could drive him off the team by racial slurs and bullying.The principal was upset that I told them there would be consequences if they touched my son, did nothing to them, and banned me from the school. Later my son got physically assaulted due to his inaction.This place is basically just a racist institution with everything suboptimal except music. If you’re not German and a jock, there’s nothing here for you.Kids also start drinking in 7th grade. An overall gross place to be.Parent Review1mo ago
