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.

A lot of the Teachers are nice and always willing to help. There is a lot of favoritism that goes on, some students get away with disrupting the class because they are the "favorite". There are some good resources you just have to figure out who to talk to.

overalll being a senior in gulf high school was good in the fact that I was able to meet alot of people who I consider my friends but the negatives of the establishment far exceeds the goods like how unpreparied I was for the acedemic exams due to the teachers odd schedule in teaching the students their material at the end of the year and the overall lack of information regarding school activity's and preperation for in-school events

Gulf High School is a good school. The teachers that my grand daughter had really cared about whether or not she went to school. They always kept in touch with us at home so we always knew what was going on at school.(even the bad things). I love this school.
