The teachers were really nice and helpful. There is a lot of vaping in the bathrooms which make it hard to go during passing time. AP classes are hard but awesome teachers.

Overall it was a decent experience, there isn't anything special about Gull Lake and its 50/50 with the teachers. Some teachers have a bit of an ego about everything and there was a couple of pretty creepy teachers as well, who wouldn't respect personal boundaries.

Gull Lake High School offers a variety of sports and clubs to do as well as chances to take offsite classes and I was really grateful for this opportunity. Although most of my teachers have been pretty good, I would've liked to see some teachers in advanced classes push us a little more while also not yelling at us for making some mistakes.

Gull lake is an amazing school... If you value looks over substance. Every student gets an iPad! Wow! Sounds amazing, right? Well the school put no effort into setting up a curriculum with them, so most teachers ban them from use in the classroom, waste of millions there. The teachers are mostly med...

Our family has been a part of the community for a few years now and we started with a positive opinion of this district. We had heard there were plenty of resources for learning, like technology. We had also noticed they seem to be commited to not letting teachers go when there are budget cuts. I am...
