My favorite part of grant community high school is the softball program because the coaches that we have work the player and make them ready to play the best they can and they also try and keep it fun by doing team bonding. It's alot of fun being a part of that community and learning to work with others. Someone that I think grant could gwt better with is trying to be more open with students I feel like some time the counselors tell the students they they know what they are doing but in reality they don't so it can get frustrated sometime when they say they know but they truly don't know.

During my time at Grant Community High School I have seen tons of growth within the school. The science department teachers are very engaging and I can always count on them when needing extra help. As a whole I have never found myself dreading going to school. The students and staff made my high school experience very enjoyable and I am proud to be apart of this school. I do hope to see more inclusion between students and staff as that is what made my high school experience amazing.

This school sucks, rude teachers as well as rude kids. Food is horrible, I've been food poisoned from the food here before. Could definitely do better.

I had created this as a Google review, but after speaking to another student who shared their experience with the same bully of a teacher giving the middle finger to a person IN the classroom (who was a student at the time), I wanted to reach out more on other platforms.“Some teachers cared, which I...
