My favorite thing about Golda Meir Highschool is it's awesome AP program. So far, I have taken a bunch of Advanced placement classes that fit my career aspirations. One thing I would change though, is probably the food. It would also be neat if we had a better sports program and more opportunities to appreciate the facilities in the school (visiting the library, counselors, etc).

I have been at Golda Meir school since I was in 5th grade. Overall I love my school with the diverse group and many cultures represented in our school. I also love that school was tailored to me with my strengths and weaknesses being taken accounted for.

I’ve been here since my 3rd grade year.. and it’s been hell. Golda claims they’re such a gifted and talented school but in reality they really aren’t. just because they have all these assemblies, programs, etc does not mean they are greater than everyone else. The teachers here are very judge-mental...

I honestly think golda meir is a good school. The teachers actually care about teaching you, and the homework proves to help you in school work. However, like many students like me, our main learning opportunities are disrupted by rousy kids. They are usually never taken care of and even make friend...

This school has lots of disruptions in classes and it is very hard to learn. I would not recommend this school to anyone. (No offense)
