message: It seems to me that the part about the Morning Show may have been written by people involved in it. I go to the school, and i can say that the views expressed are not that of the student body. We students here rarely ever pay attention to these anouncemts, and feel they are far from "genius"

message: Can all the high school students with nothing better to do please stop vandalizing this page? If you want to make up stupid stories or write about how "this school sucks", please do it on your Myspace or somewhere else instead. Thanks. Colinsweet 18:17, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Continuous Vandalism 

message: I'm guessing this article is fully protected, because i can't edit it.
The athletics section is missing certain sports
These include:
Swimming
Softball
Tennis
Some other high schools, such as Cornwall and Washingtonville, also have sections on such topics as history, campus, and noteable alumni.
This article once had an alumni section, one of those mentioned being John Trautman. Whatever happened to this?
:It's semi-protected since MW students have vandalized their school's article more than any other school in Orange County. If you want to add these things (with sources, of course), set up an account. Or put the sections and sources you want to add here and I'll put the in. Daniel Case 03:32, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Athletics and Other Topics 

message: I graduated 1980. I had gone through the junior high system and into the full four years at the old high school building prior to the new facility. Seeing this here now, forces memory of my time. We had one especially bad riot, however in those days cell phones did not exist, etc. We had the various groups lined up on opposite sides of the cafeteria, some had rolls of quarters in their hands, etc. And, then they went at it. Why comment this? Well, the full four years there were very unpleasant, none high school-ish in experience as one might expect. I don't know how many folks from that time might remember it, or even agree. However, it has always been a questionably run school as a regional school. I remember wanting to transfer then to the Goshen High School, which was private and Catholic but could not work out the many things entailed with doing so.
Sadly, it would appear in regard to the many layers that exist here, not much has changed. In retrospect, I guess I may even be surprised now that I even made it to College, aside from working toward Graduate work. I certainly would not attribute to anything this school system had to do with it, end-to-end.
I see the profile of the school on the official site -- more than 2000 students and growing, mostly in the minority population. Well, this school has always been to large for such a diverse region, in my opinion. And for me, to see a statistic of growing, attributed to minority population is a red flag as self evident of the underlying problem. Why state a generic breakout statistic like that (though specific in a questionable manner)? How do you define minority --within the school, the local town, the region, the county, the state? The implication is none Caucasian --correct? Right a way, the administration has set up sides, no?
Well, this is just me. I hope this comment survives on this page, and the school system overall one day drives toward a quality of service agreement with the student, not government statistics to prove value and worth. Does this sound liberal, maybe. However, as a manager myself (known as tough), expulsion, or redirection for hard cases that drive these issues I have no issues with. Although, the hard cases in my time could be rooted back to poor administration as a cause, as well as teachers the administrators would have been truly shocked to know about how they interacted with specific students, when no one was looking. 
(I will now parenthetically comment this, if deemed bias, however is a fact of my individual experience. I was assaulted twice in my time through the junior to high school end by teachers -- never once by another student (the junior high event would be on record with the then Principle and teacher, since met with my parents and myself (circa '75 - '77) -- however, not the high school episode since nothing was done after the first experience, so didn't bother -- in those days, folks didn't sue at the drop of a dime, possibly leading to today's mentality? Now, had I assaulted either of those teachers, if I had the physical means to retaliate, that would have been news worth, regardless of cell phone technology not available to catch it. Times, have certainly changed, indeed --and not.)

message: I've removed content alleging "administrators have faced criticism" and " ...according to many students and academic activity directors as well as teachers, an administrative favoritism towards athletics." because the cited source does not support these statements.  While the audit found flaws in a system, the report covered a period ending almost two years ago.  Tiderolls 05:19, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

message: An unsourced claim to an unprecedented three consecutive wins. http://www.odysseyofthemind.com/past_wf.php shows that they did indeed place first in one challenge for Division III three years running (I didn't check if this was unprecedented), but it appears that the competition has 4 or 5 challenges. It does not seem accurate to claim that they won the competititon. In fact, there is no mention of overall winners of the competition, just first place rankings for each of the challenges.
