Gulf Shores High School is a formidable institution and it has many opportunities for students. Some lower marks are simply due to issues regarding making schedules as for several years there was an excess of workload for the school counselors. Additionally, it seems that areas like the band receive less funding than sports but it is better than other schools in the area.

At Gulf Shores High School, there is an incredible arts and drama program. The culture of the school is a bit lacking, being completely surrounded by football season and not giving much recognition for other sports or activities. There are many great clubs, but the classes seem to be lacking behind national averages or class standards, such as what we are supposed to read and learn.

I personally have had a great experience at this school. I transferred here from another school and have never felt more welcomed and more successful. This school really provides you with everything you need. I think it is a great place for a person to attend and graduate from. I love it here.

Since becoming a new system, GS has made great strides in creating an excellent environment for students. New programs, academies, and classes are just the beginning. My children will have the foundation they need to excel at the next level thanks to GSHS.
