Reviews of McGuffey Joint High School and Middle School (Kindergarten)

Paul Byers

Unfortunately, the Gay-Straight Alliance “Day of Silence” didn't make the news, but eight boys took care of that. It's important to remember the good that's being done.

Morgan Sneed

They allow students to bully LGBT students with no consequences. Hate speech isn't protected. These anti-gay bullies need to be taken out to the woodshed and beaten

Christopher Mukina

Schools like these create Trumpism.

I'm completely disgusted by the school administration for allowing this anti-gay day....as well as the students involved and the parents that raised them. Very very sad.

Sherry Udall

This high school should be ashamed. In this day and age to allow an "Anti-Gay" day. I am speechless. You are now being shouted out to the world as a bunch of back wood hicks. The administration should have acted swiftly and been decisive in showing that this bigotry and hate is not tolerated. The world is watching people and what they think of your school, your students, your standards has a lot to be desired.

I think some of the comments are warranted. But some of you are no better than the so called bigots you claim "everyone" is that went there. The funny part is you are basing your opinions solely on what you've heard from the media. Shame on you. Shame on you all. You have no idea what has transpired at the school since this has happened. I will tell you it is for the better. They are way ahead of us as a country. But you didn't hear about that because the media doesn't care. The media only cares about what makes you angry. They only care about hate. I know first hand what is going on. The changes they have made. A good friend of mines daughter goes to school there. She is openly bi. And she says that the whole thing was blown out of proportion but the school is better for the events which did occur. So before you start spreading your hate and rage why don't you do some research. Because a lot of you sound like asses.

What a bunch of bigot children!!!!!

"Anti-Gay Day" and Lynch list and these students are still in school? I hope the students suffering the hazing sue the pants off the school district for allowing this to continue. This is a hate crime and should be handled as such. I am ashamed of this education system and school district to allow this to continue!!

Ignoring all the comments about the anti-gay protest by a few individuals a year ago which has nothing to do with the school itself, here is my opinion from somebody that actually went to school here. This school has some of the worst scores in the state. A good portion of the teachers are simply not very good at their job. The administration is appalling. Football is more important than education or anything. Spend $2 million on a football field and then try to cut the marching band to save money. Seriously? At the time I went there, if you took French or German you would learn things, if you took Spanish you would not. I took 4 years if Spanish and got an A in every class, yet cannot form more than one or two sentences. The students mostly are farmers and have no wish to learn, but are generally good people. There are no gangs and bullying is actually quite minimal. The school still has mold problems but is otherwise kept quite clean.

Not the greatest school. Average to below average education. Small staff makes it difficult to teach students to their individual levels. Many teachers do at least seem to put in the effort. Staff is mostly good, though it does appear to be mismanaged at times. Student body is not always the best, though the bigots are mostly a vocal minority.

The Anti-Gay day was a peaceful protest. There was no shoving of LGBT students. Also, no scripture was put on the LGBT student's lockers. What proof does the school district, the LGBT students, or parents have that posters and scripture was hung on lockers or that people work physically harassed. I go here, there are security cameras everywhere, they surely would have seen something. The students did not want gay rights shoved down their throats. If someone can say pro gay, someone can say anti gay. Also, this was a religious protest. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 says homosexuality is a sin. Look it up. But, I don't hate these students or think of myself as over them. I have sinned too. Love the sinner, hate the sin is my motto. These students did nothing wrong and were only trying to prove a point. The only bullying that happened was a LGBT student drew male genitals on a protester's face and wrote anti gay my rear end. Also, there was no rumored Lynch list. It was something students made up for the news so they would get support even though they were lying. Also, this was not a hate crime. God is love, but sin is sin. You are calling these kids bigots, but you are just taking what the news told you and what students made up to truth. Well, it's fiction. The definition of bigot is a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions. You won't even take the reasons the students peacefully protested into consideration, you just jump on the gay bandwagon. So, who is the bigot now. I'm a Christian, and if they decide to do the day of silence again this year, guess what, I will protest too. The school also has a policy that you should not kiss in hallways. My friend and his girlfriend were called down to the office and told not to kiss anymore, but when my mom picks me up from school, usually on the way down I see lesbians kissing in the middle of the hallway. So, is it a hate crime on my straight friend and his straight girlfriend who were kissing in the hallway, because the lesbians were not told to stop. But, if someone tells the lesbians to stop, it is a hate crime. I know it is insane. I will also take any punishment that comes from my school for this writing or for my peaceful protesting.

For some reason this school has, as so far, refused to take any action against the anti gay cowards. Cowards who verbally and physically hurt anyone who dares demand for LGBT equality. Fix it now! Bullying against LGBTs and anyone else is wrong. The administration needs to show that they are more mature than these hateful kids.

I have been analyzing human sexual behavior since 1968. Schools are suppose to be places that we learn from, not the other way around. Anyways, here are some, not all, science facts that all schools should teach to their students, and homophobes should learn: 1) Every human being in the world is born with bisexual tenancies --- yes, everyone. 2) Every family tree has a least one LGBT person in it -- including yours. (I had a gay uncle). 3) There are LGBT people in every job occupation in America. 4) There is at least one LGBT person living on every block in America. 5) Churches are a great place to find closeted LGBT people -- even straight churches like yours. 6) I know personally many, many straight guys that have experienced a same-gender sexual experience. 7) A mother loses more testosterone with the more male children she bears. In other words, the youngest male offspring is more likely not to be straight, versus the first-born male child who is more likely to be straight. 8) Every person has had a dream, and/or thoughts, about a same-gender sexual experience. That is normal. That person is not necessarily bi or gay. 9) Usually, the more a person is verbally and/or physically homophobe towards others, the more likely that that person might not be so straight after all. 10) Like they always say: "The Difference Between A Straight Guy, And A Gay Guy, Is A 6-Pack Of Beer".

Don't send your kids here, they're not safe!!

Jim Fortier

This school should be ashamed for allowing the anti-gay abuse to continue. It seems the brunt of this falls onto the school administrators for allowing such a thing. The parents of these children should also be held accountable. Shame on all of you

Johan Bock

This is a hateful bunch. How do they have time to learn when they are so busy hating people they have never met?

AIDEN REAMS

I go here, it is awful

Ryan Rokicki

I would try to insult the bigots at this school, but they're probably too stupid to understand that they're being insulted anyway.

Based on recent events...NEVER ENROLL YOUR CHILDREN AT THIS HIGH SCHOOL
