Maple Grove High School is most definately the place to be! The teachers there are not only fantastic at what they do, but also passionate at what they teach. They offer so much more than just "knowledge and principles", but even go as far as developing a relationship with the students. We (as a school) are generally well spirited, especially at althletic events. Our althletic programs are so amazing, and our achedemic success rate so impressive, that there are awards given out each year to students, recognizing them for their hard work and achievments! We have quite a few fun, different clubs and activities that many students at our school appreciate and love. Music? Art? Yes, we also have both of those things still, due to our well bonded, and loving community passing our budget vote. I was a student involved in both art and music and I would have to say that BOTH are spectacular and an important part of our school. It gives students a chance to express themselves, find themselves, and improve themselves. Maple Grove? I couldn't be more proud to call it my school, and I should hope you will call it yours too! (:

Maple Grove (or MGHS) is an excellent school to be attending. They are one of the best schools in New York. The teachers are all experts in their subject of interest. You can join the Chorus or Band in any grade, and they offer many sports and extracurricular activities, such as Jr. High and High School Quiz Bowl. Each year, MGHS holds Academic and Athletic awards ceremomies. The school is always clean and neat. Everyone at MGHS has a good attitude and works well there. I definitely recommend MGHS to people!! :)
