Glen Allen High School is a great school with great teachers who teach well and prepare students for the future. Battle of the Classes is the best event that happens at the school. It is a school spirit event where all grade levels compete against each other. It brings the school together and gives an opportunity for students to meet new people. The academics are good at this school and the teachers are very nice and understanding.

My overall experience at Gln Allen High has been great. Of coarse all Schools can approve on some things but I dont have anything but good things to say about my school. I've enjoyed my teachers, peers, social clubs and much more. I'm excited for the next chapter of my life. The last two years was a little intense but overall it has been worth while. Being a parent of a community who strive for excellence is great no comparison.

Glen Allen High school was fun to experience. I went there when it was fairly new still. The hallways were always a little bit too crowded, but it was manageable. The school spirit was always a really big thing while I was there and I found it encouraging. It really helped everyone feel involved and included.

the overt racism and ableism disguised as jokes at this school is disgusting. teachers are hostile towards students and have a complete and utter disregard for mental health. when students finally do get reported for misconduct, they typically get slaps on the wrist.
