Moshannon Valley is not a very good school the teachers don't care about their work and they don't help you when you need it. They allow bullying and fights in the halls and classrooms. Basicly if you don't play sports you won't go very far. The building is in bad condition and has no heat,the books are old and out-dated. Mostly we work on computers instead of papers, it wouldn't be so bad but we are givin little or no instruction.

I have watched many students and parents suffer from the things that go on at this school. The people who are there to help do very little to help if anything at all. I agree with the fact that things being fueled by money at this school. I also know first hand the book shortage is true. The construction is over and no longer an issue. I also think that discipline in most cases is not handled well at all. Teachers are able to say and do as they please and students suffer very much with discipline students are pushed to there breaking point. They are people to and they also have a limit on how much they can take. Mariel Kephart former student and now parent

I am a student at Moshannon Valley. Some people say that it is a good school but I have to disagree with them. The school is more interested in how it looks and what is around it then the students being taught. The teachers don't want to be there so why should the students have to go and deal with them! As for heat, there is not a single warm room in the school. every romm is very cold! They need to get heat and make sure that the students are getting a good education than to spend their money on items that we don't need! Out books are very old, falling apart and are very limited. Usually, it is a first come, fisrt serve deal with the books becasue there isn't enought for the whole class! The work that the teachers is usually impossible to do!

I am a student at Moshannon Valley High school.Mo Valley is not as bad as some of these parents say.Yes, there is fighting. Kids who really want to fight will find ways of doing it.Most don't care if there is teachers around.Most teachers do care about us (students).They try to teach but alot of students don't want to learn and don't try.My learning experience doesn't get stopped by the teachers showing lack of care, but by the students who don't care.Instead of sitting there for others to learn, they cause disruption.With the sports program issues, students love sports.So what if our teams don't win?People in our community put way to much pressure on athletes.The construction is over.As for the books, they aren't that bad.Some, yes, they are horrid but most aren't.I have nothing bad to say about Mo-Valley except there is way too much drama. But it is like that everywhere.
