I believe that Murphy High School is the best school i have ever been too. The teachers there for the most part are so caring and loving. And the students are so cool. There sports achieve so high. And they have a high level in acedemics.
My daughter transferred into Murphy last year. I must say that I have been very impressed with all of the teachers and staff. They were most supportive as she was expecting a baby and they did everything possible to see that she had good outcomes emotionally and academically. I give the school an A+++!
My daughter also attended Murphy High School and the previous 'commenters' are right; it has a great athletic program. Unfortunately, if you are not an athlete then you just aren't. There is very little interest in academic excellence; very little encouragment if the student is not with the 'in' crowd. I know this happens at all schools, but it seems to be especially rampant at Murphy.

The atmosphere is less than friendly and students are often treated as the enemy by some teachers and office personnel. I think there is a lot that could be done to improve the hospitality of the school. There are a few young teachers that are really trying to relate to the students but they battle a long established bully mentality in the older staff members.
