As a rising Senior at this school, I can say that I've really enjoyed my time so far at this school. I am enrolled in the IB Program which while extremely challenging, it has definitely made me a better student overall. I have yet to get a bad teacher and I've really liked all of them. While we have a good amount of classes, there is definitely room for more such as life skill classes or higher level physics. The principal is really good and has definitely left a big impact on the school. In summary Grimsley is a great school with a lot to offer and I highly recommend it to anyone in the area.

Overall Grimsley was a fun time but I wouldn't send my future children here by choice. The teachers kind of suck and are pretty lazy with terrible attitudes. The admin always "side" with the teacher leaving students for dead basically. I'm not talking about behavioral stuff because I don't know anything about that but being genuinely concerned and confused because your teacher doesn't teach nor help you understand and admin will just giggle and move on with their day. Definitely have to get your parent involved with everything and cc them to every email.

My experience at Grimsley High School has been wonderful so far. I never thought I'd be at a school that is so encouraging of their students nor in high school at all. I grew up in Jamaica Queens New York, and going through grade schools the teachers weren't as encouraging. But coming here to Grimsley they helped me see my potential and what I can do. I promise to graduate and make my mother proud. I would not be able to be here writing this if my mother never sacrificed her life to come to America. And for that, I am very grateful.

Probably the best overall public high school in central NC if not all NC
5/26/2024
Grimsley is an amazing school with excellent leadership. The numbers on “Greatschools” make no sense. All Guilford County high schools students take the ACT (for free) which explains the low SAT testing rates. The best prepared students at Grimsley are IB program students, who earn colleges credit w...

They could improve teacher attitudes, understanding of how technology fuctions.
7/8/2017
The IB Program is a great program which should be more promoted and differentiate Grimsley from other Guilford County High Schools.
