Millville Senior High School (3) 

I strongly disagree with the decision for high school athletes to pick their college based on if they can play a D-III or D-II sport at the college they choose to attend. I think there is too much of a focus on committing to schools based on sports, and while this isn't always pursued in vain, I think there needs to be a higher emphasis placed on attending a college that most closely aligns with possible career ambitions. The reality is that it is highly unlikely to go pro from a D-III or D-II school (even D-I for that matter), and while it is unlikely that most high-schoolers will know what they want to do with the rest of their life, it is better to pursue a college based on how strong it is in certain areas (business, engineering) and how economically feasible it is to attend (Rowan, Rutgers, CCC).

The outlook of Millville has the potential to be bright. The New Jersey Schools Development Authority (SDA) has recently commenced a $114.5 million expansion of the school. The new infrastructure will help the school accommodate around 2,000 students and will include new science labs, music rooms, cafeterias, and gyms. Expected to be completed by 2022, this gives Millville a promising glimmer of hope to become a greater New Jersey school similar to its North Jersey counterparts. This, coupled with a stronger focus and resource allocation towards AP classes and SAT test prep could drastically improve the school's trajectory towards greatness. Hopefully that day comes soon.
