GFA truly helped me prepare for life after high school. The teachers, facilities, and resources were amazing and provided me with all the tools I need to succeed in college.

My husband and I considered GFA but after our family visit we pulled her application. We realized our child would get the same (if not better) education at our local public school with more diversity. Admissions was more like a country club membership atmosphere than a respectable academic institution. We also found out that many kids admitted were admitted for things other than academics such as how much parents can donate to the school or parents connections in the community. Use the money to travel with your child and expose them to other cultures and ways of life.

GFA has been a game-changer for me. Had an amazing Freshman year, and the start of my Sophomore year has been even better. The people are so friendly, the atmosphere so welcoming, and the learning experience is inviting and exciting. There is no better school for me and I'm glad I came here. Perhaps you will too.

GFA is a bastion of white privilege and anti-intellectualism. It is less a school than a country club for the children of the super rich, white, anti-intellectual elite, who prefer to coddle their offspring into believing that the real world looks the way it does on the GFA campus, which is a perfec...

The character, relationships and academic foundation built at GFA are unmatched. My family is so grateful to be a part of this community.
