There are many good things about this school but one of the many things that stand out to me is the love and support they have for us the students. There are many staff, teachers, counselors that are there to always help us with anything. I love the way the care for us academically but also us as a person which makes this a great school, allowing there to be trust and safety.

I had a great experience in Gompers, with both my academics and community. I had lots of fun my last years of Gompers, so I overall enjoyed my 6 years in Gompers.

I'm attending this school right now and all I have to say is don't enroll your children here. most of the teachers here are on the chill side. the actual staff is a different story most of them will get you in trouble for literally anything and the director is always making changes to the dress code...
