Overall, my experience has been one of the best experiences at Granville Central. Not only has my high school years been the best, the teachers that helped me along the way made them even better. Some of my best moments were creating relationships with my teachers and joining different clubs, especially the marching band!! I don't really recall having worst moments, other than some of classes being difficult at times.

Granville Central has been the best high school experience I could have ask for. The opportunities that are offered to the students is in abundance. The programs help lay the path to your career. All the academics and extra curricular programs are very diverse and supportive.

I love attending Granville Central. The principals, teachers, and staff are so caring and helpful. I do wish we could have had more events for students to engage together like tailgates before football games, etc.

The sports here is is terrible except for basketball, the coaches are way below par and dont care, the AD is worse and the principal doesnt care. The teachers are good but it seems like most all just want to get by, to do nothing extra ordinary.
