Read what parents are saying about McDonough High School
This one school let the kids run the school. The principal don’t call you when it’s an issue or when your child been jump. You have to keep calling asking what are they doing about bullying and harassment. They don’t take anything serious.

This has to be one of the most unsafe schools in America. Students bring guns, drugs, etc. Teachers are barely teaching. Packets of work are handed out. Administrators are not concerned with child safety or academic growth. Worst mistake my family ever made. We move back North in 6 months.

This school is very violent, lots of fights. There have been guns seen in the build plenty of times, a gun even went off last year. I don't recommend this school to anyone!

This school is one of the worst schools I've ever been to. There is no source of stability in the school. Students are allowed to do anything, overpopulated, and no authority in place.
