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.

Gull Lake High School brings many different learning opportunities to students. However, it is not very diverse. It lacks in culture, ethnicity, and more. Most teachers genuinely care for students but there are a few who have no respect towards students at all.

The curriculum is fairly challenging, but the community is not as welcoming between students. Lots of drama and other problems.
