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.

Being at global has given me the chance to show how much I could learn and how much I will learn. The teachers there are very kind and dedicated to make sure you learn what you have to learn. The classes aren't hard or easy but it is enough to challenge you in many ways. The classes also have unique ways to teach. For example you could be making a full jurassic park for science as a project just to learn about predators and prey

There is a dress code where students must wear khaki, blue, and black colored pants and green, white, and black colored polo shirts. I don't have anything against the dress code, as it is very helpful. I don't have to spend time wondering what to wear. Since i am in student government, it is easy to talk to the principal and discuss a topic. When we come to an agreement, he will willingly apply them to our school.
