I went to Morrice all my school years. I remember being bored from kindergarten on up. We didn’t learn half the things kids in other schools learned. I still look at the Facebook statuses of people I graduated with and noticed the most basic grammatical and spelling errors. I got into a good university after school, but it was no thanks to my guidance counselor. I went out on my own and explored schools and figure out how to get into college by myself. Morrice also provided no scholarships or any other help. Some of the high school teachers were fun and engaging. Unfortunately, school spirit doesn’t exactly contribute to intelligence. Most of us graduated without the most basic understandings of history, geography, biology was only taken if you elected to, chemistry and other core skills that are needed to build upon in college. This made college more work for me, as I had to teach myself the basic foundations before building upon that to learn what college wanted us to already know. Most people that graduate from here don’t go to college. Don’t limit your children.

The good: Small class sizes and hard working PTO that gets all the supplies the kids need.The bad: They do not retain talented teachers. Their curriculum is a year behind neighboring districts. Bright students will find themselves bored as there is nothing for them at Morrice.

Morrice Area Schools is a magnet school for under-achievers. What they gain in school spirit, they loose in being able to teach reading, writing, and math. I have took steps to "school of choice" four children out of this district because of the severe inability of the school system to understand what it takes to be minimally competent. Every child in this district is an AT RISK student and even the top of the class will find themselves grossly unprepared for life upon graduation. A diploma from Morrice Area Schools is worthless at this point.
