In my experience in Glasgow Highschool, the school is a pretty good school the students are the reason for its bad reputation. The staff mostly cares for their students and helps in anyway possible. I don't have a best and worst experience and if I did it would be based on the students not the school it's self. Overall I think it is a pretty good school.

So far my experience at Glasgow has been great it's definitely not what most kids here make it out to be.I have had a great time here and I've learned so much in the time being.I have amazing teachers and they've helped me out a lot during school and made sure I've gotten what I need. I never felt unsafe there nor have I been bullied.I can say the kids could are bringing the school down and need more discipline. A vast majority of the children complain of how horribly Glasgow is and the teachers can't teach but they don't put any effort towards anything to try and learn. Glasgow isn't a star school but it's better than most schools I could've went to.
