Great AP teachers. Bad administration. I have had to do their jobs for them several times. I have made my own schedules and worked on making sure I have enough credits while the counselors have not been very helpful.
1/2/2025
The best part about gardendale highschool is how nice the administration is there and how they want the best for you. The only bad thing about gardendale highschool is the college readiness could be a little bit better.
8/28/2024
My best experience is that it's safe and get us ready for college and prepare us and be hard on us about certain things we do wrong and I like that cause as kids we learn from mistakes
