My daughter didn't feel safe at GHS so she was taken out before spring break began and finished her classes online
12/30/2023
Both of my daughters attend GHS. Overall, it's been a positive experience. The teaching staff has been excellent and I am confident about the academics. In terms of culture and safety, there have definitely been issues over the years. It's not just the students, as we've gone through several administrations with varying levels of poor decisions.
3/27/2023
It's a great school with a variety of academic programs such as Academy of Future Teachers, Academy of Health Professions, Cambridge Program, English Second Language Program, and even ROTC/NJROTC.
