GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

The best thing about the school is that I could pick the shop I wanted to be in that was Auto collision I learned a lot on how to do detailing and fixing dents and spray painting cars. The worst thing about the school is that I'm in the 12 grade and I'm going to be graduating soon and I would like to further my career in college and taking up both Auto tech and auto collision and then one day have my own shop.

I was very prepared with the classes I took. I wish the teachers and guidance counselors were more supportive. My guidance counselor told me I wouldn't get into my dream school, and I shouldn't bother, to only apply for my safe school.

My best experience at GL tech is the growth I have made along the way in every aspect. I have grown as a leader, student, and athlete. I did so much developing over my last four years. Some of the negative aspects include using time wisely, and the ability of some math teachers to teach effectively.
