Best parts are the experiences as an athlete, I enjoyed all my 4 years in varsity. The worst is for sure the food.

It was a good and had a lot of resources as to help the students in their journey to graduate and apply for college. They were always helpful to who ever had questions or were falling behind. The school made sure there were enough chances for everyone to graduate.

I wouldn't go here. faculty is racist and allows people of color to be bullied and discriminated against. They don't offer that many clubs and they expect students to fund every aspect and run everything. Parents are barely involved.

Terrible and Despicable! In fact, I am fifty-seven years old and have never in my life have seen any school treat children as bad as this before. Your running a prison camp. Good luck.

Homework: it really depends on the teacher (just like most schools) Some teachers are very adamant on homework and some hate it, it really just depends on the teacher. Teachers: like i said it really depends on the teacher. Most of the teachers are willing to help you out, and they do offer tutoring...

I wouldn't say it's the best, as there is way better schools than Golden Valley.

I graduated with a right state of mind of what I want to be in college.
