The school itself is fine. However, some teachers are just not fit to teach. It also feels like a prison due to all the fences around. Its alright I guess.

Experienced and well-trained teachers that connect with students for smoother learning process. Great extra-curricular programs. They have very supportive counselors but the school should hire at least two more to accommodate amount of students. Food quality has improved greatly over the years. City has record low crime rates in county. Very good school in great city.

The teachers at Gonzales High School are very kind and help with anything. I would give the teachers an A, but the food on the other hand I would rate a C.
