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.

This school has great academics. Very diverse so you'll be able to be friends with many different people which helps with your social life. Cafeteria food isn't top tier but there are fast food places surrounding the school. Most of the teachers are actually good at teaching and care about your well being.

Gahanna Lincoln High School is a good school to attend. it has lots of different extra curricular and classes that can help support ones learning for what they want to do later in life. Students are able to take AP classes to become better equipped for college. However sometimes it seems like some teachers don't care about their students and don't do a lot to help them through class if they are struggling.

My child was super unhappy at this school. Teachers ignored him and the guidance counselor showed zero interest in helping him with his options on what to do for post secondary education or career routes. This district completely ignored students who do not come from affluent backgrounds. They also...
