6/5/2025
I have really enjoyed my time at George Washington High School. I love the speech and debate program, and am currently enrolled in the IB diploma. It is hard work, but I have learned a lot. I do feel like the general DPS teacher retention rate is poor, making all our best teachers leave, but I don't think that is specific to the school itself. Overall, I like the school, but things could be changed.
5/2/2025
Overall, my experience at George has been extremely positive. The community is very diverse and strong, and the teachers are extremely supportive. Although the athletics could perform better, I still find the teams to be extremely tight-knit and strong regardless.

I was a George Washington High School student and I loved the community there, but one part drawback the happiness of the culture: the safety. The school was founded in 1960, and was originally used as a military based until it was converted, and the age of the school affects the appliances there causing heating issues, as well as plumbing problems. And with such a diverse population there Is bound to be some discrimination to happen. Causing fights and violence

DPS gave me no options for schooling. My son was 15. I sent him to live with his noncustodial dad and that blew up in my f...

She graduated this year and they did a wonderful job through COVID.GW was a great school for my daughter: it has advanced and AP classes as well as the typical Public School option of a "regular" class.While this sometimes leads students to feel as though there a...

I got to graduate but didn't have to attend classes or learn much. I did play basketball here but failed out of college.
