Niche Reviews
8/10/2025
Overall a pretty positive experience, however administration and some staff are very clearly burnt out or they just hate the kids... Don't know which one. Most important lesson they taught me was don't rely on anyone else to help you out 🤷♀️
12/13/2024
Sam Barlow is probably the nicest school in Gresham. Although Barlow has their cons, like bathrooms always being closed or stuffed to the brim with smokers and all you do is inhale it. Overall the drug use on campus is really bad. Teachers are a hit or miss, They can be really rude or really nice, the biology curriculum isn't good this year, biology is the living of the cell not lions. Barlow has fun sports and fun activities some times during the year. But overall it's really not a fun school when you attend on a daily.
10/4/2024
Students are mostly positive and are very supportive of Athletics and Activities. On the down side, bathrooms throughout the school are inaccessible at most times during the day because of vandalism, or groups taking over the space.

Very, VERY, good experience. I absolutely loved Barlow. I graduated with a 3.8 gpa.I was in journalism and wrote many, many articles.I miss Barlow! I love Sam Barlow High school!

Barlow is a school with many problems. Majority of these are resulting from the lower level staff and administration. There are many instances of unfair treatment between students by staff (you can get away with just about anything if youre goody goody enough with the right staff/teachers) theres al...

Trash.The school is trash. Nothing more, nothing less.... The school is like a factory. They try to ship(graduate) students out of that building as cheaply as possible. They don't care about the quality of the education.
2/14/2013
