The best part of McCaskey is the fact of how diverse the school is. However, that is where the good things of the school end. The students are disrespectful, the bathrooms are never clean, and food is terrible.
6/1/2024
The students are very diverse and the schools overall very inclusive, they offer many different opportunities and strive for improvement every day. They change up lunch options, there's a wide variety of courses and they're extremely welcoming to immigrants and LGBTQ+

At McCaskey there are cliques. I spend most of my time in our music wing. that is where the majority of my friends are from. if there are not in the music wing there are from my honors classes. We are very separated by Honors/IB so I'm with the same people in all of my classes. also there are own cliques in the music wing so it also hard to make friends. I would like to see the safety at McCaskey change. we have a lot of lockdowns and with being a city school its understandable but I would just like to see change.
