I like that the staff at Granville Central takes the time to get to know their students and care about their education. There is not really a worst part but I do wish that with some of the extra curriculum stuff like Prom that they would consider the students opinions when planning. Some of them feel that administration can be a bit boring.

Overall, my experience was very good at this school. I grew very close to my teachers and they always took the time to learn about each of their students. If any student needs anything then at least 4 teachers are ready and willing to step up. The administration is the only downside as they take away some of our freedoms by enacting a strict dress code and the reduction of opportunities for student leadership in the past two years.

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.
