GreatSchools Rating
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.

The best thing about GMHS is the school spirit. There is a lot of school pride especially within sports. There is not a lot of racial diversity or inclusion within the school which can be changed.

Overall, my high school experience was very good. The school offers a plethora of classes ranging in different difficulty levels. I ended up being a sophomore in college when I was technically a freshman due to how many AP/ECE classes I used to my advantage.

It was a really good school to go to. They challenged us and prepared us well for college. I now find that as a freshman in college, my work in high school was somewhat harder than what I do now. I feel very prepared for my future endeavors.

Teachers focus solely on the work rather than the feelings of the students. Workload is often overwhelming. Obviously no coordination between separate departments on anything.

This school is a terrible school. Most of the reviews that you see here are written by a teacher, that is why they have for some odd reason the best word choice.
