Galva Jr/Sr High School is a great school located in rural Henry County Illinois. They offer a variety of classes in conjunction with the local community college to help prepare students for what lies beyond high school.

Our weight room is slowly becoming more advanced. I really wish we had an all weather track instead of a cinder based track. The locker rooms are a little out dated but our football field is kept nice along with our stands.

We don't have a choice of what we get, everyday there is an assigned lunch. We have one vending machine with snacks and drinks that is only available at certain times during the day. Our lunches aren't the best but I do sometimes still eat them.

This school is just all in total not good teacher will team up on you over 1 thing kids get away with everything and you can basically do whatever you want unless you a kid targeted I would not recommend this school to parents if you want them to have a good school experience and good mental health

The worst school I have ever seen and the reason many families move from Galva is for their children to be treated with respect and fair

I would rate this school the worst I've ever seen in all aspects! From what I've seen they could care less about the students. I don't know how they can still operate.
