It’s a very outdated school they have kids who go to school here who have some serious mental health issues you walk by them at the local park and they make these really strange noises like they really aren’t well. Hoping this post well help them to get the help they need maybe the school can put together some program for them. And the food in cafeteria is really poor.

This is an alright school. Some of the teachers are cool but the assistant principal, Mr. webb is not. He used to search me almost every week and then when he would never find anything on my he stopped. I thought it was because he knew I wasn’t doinf anything bad but then he just started calling my mom and telling her that I’m vaping in the bathroom so he a bitch

The NEW Morgan School opened in Clinton in September of 2016. This new state of the art facility provides one of the nicest learning environments for our students in the state of CT. The rooms are set up in a way to foster collaboration amongst students and teachers. Floor to ceiling windows let welcome natural light into all of the classrooms. There is not a bad seat in the gorgeous auditorium. The school looks and feels like a true campus. All of our high school students are also provided with Chrome books, and technology has significantly improved. According to my son, overall morale has improved since they have moved into this new learning facility. My son is taking challenging courses, Honors and AP classes, as well as College Prep courses. His teachers and administration genuinely care about the students. Students often lead and assist with school orientations and open houses, etc. There are also clubs for just about every activity and hobby one can think of. Sports are also popular, and have increased school spirit.

I am a Morgan graduate and currently have one child at Morgan. Since attending Morgan, my child has felt extremely comfortable, and welcomed and inspired by the school's teachers. I am impressed with the number of young, passionate and energetic teachers at the high school, many of whom are local. I was also pleasantly surprised with how many clubs are offered at the school, to meet the varying interests of all students. "We are Morgan" is clearly a theme that has been warmly embraced by the student body, teachers and adminstration, bringing back "Morgan Husky Pride". I suspect that the new state of the art high school, opening in the fall of 2016, will only strengthen that pride and increase morale! My child's courses are extremely challenging and I have no doubt his academic experience at this school will prepare him well for college. Kudos to the administration for hiring additional guidance counselors and creating Grade 9/10 & 11/12 academies to focus on the transition in and out of high school to best prepare their students.

Morgan is a great school - my son is a senior there and got into his 1st choice (very competitive) school. I feel he is well-prepared for college (at least academically!). The school could do more for the students in the middle, but they are headed in the right direction under the current administration. Looking forward to a new Morgan School building in 2016.

The School system in Clinton, to my family, is simply the best! When my two kids started Kindergarten they have had extraordinary teachers that have set the path for them to focus and be self motivators. Both kids are on the honor roll and continue to strive for their very best. I say thank you to all the teachers that have taught my children.

a broad range of academic levels to accomodate every student's needs. my daughter has since graduated from The Morgan School and gone onto a private college with high academic standards. within the college student body, she and other Morgan grads were better prepared for college work incl. writing than students who had come from expensive private Prep-schools. The students in the Clinton school system really are offered an excellent education.
