This school involved so many things inside and outside through my experiences in this school I'd say this school is amazing for new people coming to this highschool My best experience is the people and the teachers that make my experience joyful my least experience I didn't enjoy is probably how much changes the school make each year with new rules or strict policies

Gering High School is a school within a great community and produces well-educated students and athletes. The dual enrollment plan with WNCC brings a lot of opportunities to students. Courses within the highschool also give students many options to explore different careers. One thing I would like to see change is the organization among teachers and requirements for some teachers for teaching experience.

Gering highschool is an overall middle class school, we have all the resources we need but lack many that would help develop us further. Many of the teachers seem uninterested and don't apply themselves. They focus way too much on punishment instead of lifting up their students and helping them gain knowledge.
