The experience is greatest of all
9/29/2023
The best parts of Gahr High School are definetly the marching band and all the amazing sports programs. The worst part of Gahr High School is probably the way a lot of students behave. I would like to see people actually getting more severely disciplined so that they don't continue to do things thé shouldn't be doing.

Why not Gah...

I would rate this school a 7/10. I wish they prepared us more for college/SATs because I was an honors/AP student and didn’t know what UC and CAL States were and the differences until second semester of junior year. The school spirit could’ve been better as well. In terms of teachers most of them we...
