Research Mauldin High School public Schools in Greer, South Carolina

“I had a freshman at MHS and she did get a great education; however the principal, Mrs. Miller and her administrators need to learn their role in the school setting. We had a lot of problems with that! Education is most impt so I overlooked the absence of the administrators!”

“I have a senior and a freshman at Mauldin this year ('07-'08). Like any school it has many pros and cons. There are many great teachers here...Mrs. Autry, Dr. Deshpande, Mrs. Farmer, Mrs. Ward to name a few. The student population is pretty diverse, which I think is great. There is a lot of Maverick pride. I would say the one down side to Mauldin is the principal, Mrs. Miller, and her administrators. Mauldin is a huge school and does require discipline, but the administrators tend to walk around the school assuming every kid is doing something wrong. I feel there is a general lack of respect for the students (on the administration end). There is also dislike between many of the teachers and the administration and this is't a healthy environment. Academically, however, I feel like my children are getting a very good education.”

“I am an alumni now, 07. But Mauldin is an amazing school, and one of the best places to spend those unforgetable high school years. Once a maverick always a maverick!”

“Mauldin High is a diverse school with a lot of great programs. It is the largest high school in Greenville County. The MHS Band is one of the top bands in the state along with several state championship sports teams that compete in AAAA. The school offers a wide variety of AP courses. There are many great teachers in the school. The Guidance department is excellent also.”

“Great School, with school spirit and a drive for academic excellance.”

“Dramatic population increase has really hurt this school over the past fifteen years. Mauldin tries to act like an urban school by offering numerous AP's and loads of extracurriculars, but this is still predominantly a rural or bedroom community where a large number of parents don't really support or understand education. Too many teachers and administrators have lived here for too long - giving the place a flavor of nepotism and near in-breeding. Extracurriculars are a plus, there are some talented teachers, but many of the best things about Mauldin are superficial. This is not a community that promotes critical thinking or creative learning.”

“As an alumni of five years, I found that Mauldin did an excellent job of preparing me for college (at a well respected out of state private university) and for life. The teachers were amazing, and very passionate about teaching (at least they were on the honors and AP level classes I took...though I believe they were on all levels. I don't know the new principal, so I won't comment on him. The band program, which was absolutlely horrible and a joke while I was there has turned into a magnificent and well-respected program. A great school. Don't move to the area unless your kid is awesome.”

“So far we have been very happy at Mauldin High. They offer the advanced classes our son need. Mrs. Autry is a wonderful math teacher. Dr. D. is also kind and caring. Both teachers expect the best and bring out the best in their students.”
