The staff is great though it's difficult to compare as I went to a private school. I do appreciate staff moving my daughter to college classes senior year.

My best part of my experience with GTJHS is that the teachers are very helpful and set you up for success. They are there for you to give tips and ideas on how to succeed in their course.

Going to school at one like Governor Thomas Johnson has taught me various things. It has taught me that people come from many different backgrounds and all stories are different. It has shown me outlets for creativity such as science and writing. Overall, a diverse school that takes pride in their academics is something that I deeply appreciate growing up in.

This school is amazing. The staff really care about the students success. I went on to get a PhD in aerospace engineering and within my peer group we had numerous JD’s, PhD’s and MD. This school set students up for success.

Our family is beyond pleased with GTJHS. Coming from another school in the district that does not celebrate diversity and does not recognize students as maturing young adults, this school is like a breath of fresh air! I'm dismayed to see that it has a relatively low rating on Great Schools. I don't...
