I currently go to mcdonough and think its a great school once you get comfortable. Sometimes the kids can be loud and distracting and the teachers will punish you for 1 or 2 people, but alot of schools do that. Also another draw back is that the halls are extremely crowded and the social aspect is kind of complicated. If your planning on moving here from a different area (like i moved here from pg) people tend to act different i guess you can say mature and everyone has their little clicks formed which made it really hard for me in 9th grade but i evntually started to blend. Some of the students who go there constantly say how much they hate mcdonough and how small it is blah blah blah so school spirit is a big thing that needs to be handle. Aside from that myteachers are geniuses! Like seriously my biology know everything about everything you can ask him any question. He has the greatest stories and my math teacher is hilarious. The teachers are (for the most part) interesting knowledgable individuals
