Mergenthaler Vocational-Technical High School

I loved this school. My teachers prepared me to be successful in life. I graduated in 1958 and immediately found a job in my field and just went on up and up in my career until I retired at the age of 62. Now at the age of 80, I still look back at the great times I had at Mervo. I could have gone to City or Poly but I chose Mervo which was the right choice for me.

The school was a good way to learn and make great friends. Being that is was vocational technical i got in my field with a head start to my counterparts

Mergenthaler is a WONDERFUL school and learning environment, with plenty of opportunities to earn an education that will create success in life. If it has one huge fault, it would be that the entrance criteria no longer eliminates students with no interest in successful academic careers as it once did before. Any decrease in academic standards is solely due to this.

I'M a 1962 graduate of MVT. commercial baking spent 40yrs. in my trade. The best years of my life were at MVT. Played the three major sports 4yrs. Made many friends from diferent parts of the city will be attending our 50th class reunion on Oct. 27th. That time in the 50's&60's were great. GO MUSTANGS

this school is large but dirty and the teaching is way below average, the only good thing about mergenthaler is the trades
