George Washington High Reviews
Rating 3.66 out of 5 435 reviews
My experience at George Washington High school was mediocre. I did enjoy my time there and made life long friends, but I feel like I could've gotten that at any other school. My educational background isn't the best, and since Washington never pushed me to do better I just stayed within my comfort zone and never pushed myself to try harder. I only did the bare minimum. But overall, I think if you were motivated and an academically strong student, Washington provides good resources if you reach out and look for them yourself.
The teachers and staff are all reasonably nice and I've never caught myself not liking one. I have felt a deeper relationship with certain teachers because they actually do reach out and try their best to help the students, which helped me develop the courage to ask more questions.

The best experiences were my math teacher was very open to help me with anything, making new friends and my counsular was very supportive. The worst experiences are some of the teachers were really unhelpful and man and sometimes there would be kids making loud noises during class.
My overall experience with this school has been great. I've had a wonderful time here, everyone is really friendly and overall a great high school experience.
