If you get yourself involved with the school you will find enjoyment in the high school experience. It is important to find your people early on the encourage each other to keep pushing even when times get difficult. Most of the teachers are excellent.

Guyer is considered prestigious when in comparison to other Denton schools. However it is severely lacking in racial equity. You also find that many teachers that work there can be quite biased as well. In order for this campus to improve we would need a major change in how students and teachers view each other.
