The Morgan School is different from most high schools. These are 20 things you only know if you go to Morgan.
-
Old School vs New School
Although we’re extremely lucky and grateful to have a beautiful new building, the OG’s know the old Morgan will always win.
-
Two Gyms is Better Than One
You never know what you have until it’s gone!
-
The library is the “Learning Commons”
No one knows what this means. But it’s the learning commons. Don’t call it a library!
-
We have one printer connected to 550 Chromebooks, but that one printer doesn’t even work
Thank goodness for Google Docs and being able to share things with your teachers!
-
The one word that triggers upperclassmen… Junior Portfolio
When you finish Junior Portfolio, never say the word again.
-
Coffee and Food Ban
When the teachers can drink their morning coffee and eat food in class, but the students can’t… there’s some resentment
-
You know the secrets to getting around the firewall.
The first couple weeks of school with the access to Netflix was nice until they blocked it; but you know the tricks so it’s fine….
-
You know you’re still going to school when there are 6 inches of snow on the ground.
Cherish snow days because they’re rare!
-
Laps are now cardio
In the old school, you could walk around in circles forever, but now taking laps is walking up and down the stairs.
-
When there are over a dozen visitor parking spots,
but you have to walk 14 miles to the front door anyways.
You know…
-
When the school threatens to tow your car if you park in visitors…
But the budget can’t afford for that to happen.
-
You know a senior boy is coming down the hallway when you hear faint rap music!
Shoutout to you guys!
-
As soon as certain freshmen smell a liberal, they scream “TRUMP!”
Realistically, no one cares because they can’t vote.
-
When a pipe breaks in the new multi-million dollar school.
First, it was the ceilings; now it’s the pipes. Is Morgan cursed?
-
Everyone knows everyone.
You could name every single student in this school if you had to, and the principals will probably know your name by sophomore year.
-
Zac Brown Band
They were really popular Spring 2016.
-
There are important assemblies about EVERYTHING.
Drug awareness, GSA, cyber bullying, and Instagram.
-
When the stairwells have cameras and the band hallway has windows.
-
When you see Mr. Underwood in the office, you know he’s principal for the day.
Who put him in charge?
-
“We are Morgan, We are Family”
