This School’s Reviews

2.0 Senior

7/24/2023

Not well suited for high achieving students. Still has many teachers that are actively sexist/racist which makes picking classes difficult

4.0 Senior

10/18/2019

I like that they offer photography class. What I don't like about Gloucester High School is the lunch schedules and food.

3.0 Alum

6/14/2019

Most teachers are good and sports are a lot of fun. Facilities could be better but overall good enough
