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.

Throughout my 4 years of attending Gordon Central Highschool, I have learned and achieved many things. Gordon Central has taught me respect and leadership. I loved all my teachers, and all my friends that I have made throughout the years. From loosing soccer games to winning and almost taking the team to state, has been a great experience.
