GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

While attending GEMS, I did not have a consistent math teacher. If given work, I was completing work made for students in the 8th grade, making it hard to advance to the 9th-grade level. I am a visual learner, therefore I found it challenging to learn virtually when Covid came around. I don't blame GEMS for this unfortunate experience, but I wish I had more support from the GEMS teachers during this time. I experienced racism for the first time. My science teacher used a racial slur to try and defend herself in a situation she claimed made her uncomfortable. After the incident, I felt unheard by the GEMS administration. While a senior, I did not feel prepared to take the following steps to start my life as an adult. The lack of teachers, communication, and strict uniform rules made it difficult to enjoy my senior year. If it's one thing GEMS has taught me, I would say as long as you believe in your goals, you can accomplish them with or without help.

I am a junior at Global Experience Magnet School and I've been attending classes there since 2019. I love the school environment and staff, but the facilities and class options are lacking. The school does make up for this though in outside opportunities.

My child planned to graduate from this school, but due to poor leadership will transfer to different high school.Only few teachers are very passionate about education, otherwise the leaders of the school don't do anything to improve children's education.Nurse is special case ,very unfriendly and lies a lot.Just say NO to global experience.
