Im Just a senior now and its a great awsome fun school thats were most of the kids go for high school i love it her and im sure ill miss this school after i graduate.
I have two students at Granite Hill and find the school to be very raciest to say the least,. Next when a teacher is absolutely wrong the staff looks the other way. My daughter was in a science class and the teacher removed her from the class and had her take a different test then her peers, when she complained she was ignored so she went to the board members of the district and nothing has been done. I send my children to school for an education not to be pick on by teachers who think they are right. Next this school does not celebrate black history month and has never, how ever at lunch every year they make sure they celebrate cinco de mayo. I wish they would treat all students the same.
This is my sons first year at GHHS. I love this school! After attending Silverado HS in Victorville, this school is a God send. At Silverado, his freshman year, he had 1600 students just in the freshman class. We were told only half of those would make it to their senior year and only half of those would graduate. Granite Hills is so much more about the individual student and not the masses that bring in the money. No school is perfect, but Granite Hill is pretty close.
As a parent of a one graduate and one current student I continue to have concerns about GHHS. Teachers are more concerned with what is good for them than their students. They teach curriculum not students. My biggest concern is with the administration. It is not child centered, it is only concerned with money, and the principal is disengaged with the student body and is only looking to make no waves as he attempts to move up the district ladder. If you are looking at GHHS as an incomming parent do yourself a favor and seek out one of the charter high schools.
Im a student and this school is disgusting trash just sits on the ground for several days, gum stuck on ground everywhere. School bathrooms havent had any soap since last year. It is almost like there is no janitor at all. Kids dont clean up. on stairs there is salad and pickles that have seem in the same spot since school started in august. this is the filthiest school i have ever attended. i will never let my kids in the future go here.
I had 2 children go to this school and never had any problems. Both had great grades and were in sports.
Granite Hills has excellent academic programs, especially AP, but they need to do more to involve parents. The choral and drama programs are also excellent.
This is a wonderful school!
I think that Granet is a great school. The teachers show interest in the childs learnung experience. The exteacurricular activies are great, they the children something to do other that get into trouble. Parents I think should be a little more involved, but for a High School IO think its much better, thatn most other High Schools.
Good School. My only bad point is the information comes too late or not at all, regarding grades, programs ect. We loved having a foreign exchange student this year!
