I love Grand Valley High School and I personally can't see my self going to another school. The environment of the school is very friendly and all the students get along quite well. The only downside of this school is how small it is and because of this it lacks comminutes within the school with clubs and such. I'm very big on music and composing it yet there aren't very many classes or clubs I can pursue my hobby with in the building but this is because of the small school with my senior class only being 81 people. The people there do make up for it not only the students but I've made some great friends with the teachers in my classes and we joke and laugh all the time. Academically it's also a phenomenal school because we get so many opportunities at AP courses and AP test for college credits. In all I couldn't imagine myself going to a different school.

Awesome school. Did very well to prepare me for college. AP programs were great and the extracurriculars were the best.

I like how involved the teachers are, I like having so classes but I do not like how popular/athletic kids and stuff gets put above everything.

A disappointment. Nothing what they claim. They are only concerned with covering the teachers when something happens, they are not looking out for students. It's not a safe environment. It worries me with how quickly kids escalate these days and how little to no intervention from the school there re...

High teacher turnover rate. High School principal seems uncaring for students. Treats all students like they learn the same way, all students are different and dont fit into one stamp.
