  • This school is regarded as a school in a middle lower class to lower class district and the GCS has seen fit to label it as such and this school is not appropriated it's funds as much as other schools in the district. It has seen many teachers transferring and leaving in the past 4 yrs and has gone through 4 principles in that time. They do have a great principle now and she is in the process of changing the school and it's neighbors around. Many of the complaints of the school is based on how unorganized it has been and they curriculum is below standard as many are in this state compared to others in the surrounding states. Classes are not challenging enough and curriculum is substandard. Many of the families in the surrounding neighborhood look at the school as a free day care so parent support is very low. Please be advised prior to moving to this district and you may want to look at the local charter school in the area.
