GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

As I'm approaching my senior year at Marcus High School, I do not have much cons about the school. Overall, the environment, school work, and extracurricular activities are spectacular at my high school. If asked my least favorite part about Marcus High School, I would say the cafeteria food, but it does not bother me since I bring my food from home.

Marcus is a big school so it is really easy to feel lost but by joining clubs or sports it helps keep you feeling like you belong.

I had some great experiences at Marcus whenever something I was a part of, such as orchestra or academic UIL actually received the support of administration. However, these activities were often overlooked for the sports teams.

My opinion about bullying is not permissible here. All I can say is as an elder we handled it did not require school intervention if a person got bullied our siblings would handle it forthwith
