Garden City High School Reviews
Rating 3.98 out of 5 134 reviews
GCHS is an amazing high school that contributes a lot to its students. However, the academic and college focused culture engrained in students is overwhelming and more effort should be placed on a mentally healthy student body.
Pretty happy with the school. They offer some good activities. I think that they should have a sports teams just for the freshman. The teachers are helpful if you need any extra assistance. They are always there to answer questions.
I love the school. Has many extracurriculars and fun school events. The bake sales are great for raising money. Also the classes and teachers are excellent and have great range. Many different classes. The teachers are great at what they do.
