The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Gloucester was not the best place, weather it was just me or not but i did not enjoy my experience and did not feel prepared for college what so ever. They would treat u like an adult some times then like a child at others.

There wasn't a lot happening at GHS, but I still loved it. There is something so different about the people there compared to anywhere else. Quirky and funny in a strange, charming way. But, as I said, not too much was happening after school in regards to clubs or activities, at least for me.
