I am currently a student at GPHS, this was not my first choice, but, I am a satisfied freshman at the school. GPHS, is great, I have learned so much. I am currently a 3.6 student, I am working for better, and my teachers, are doing a great job helping me, It's fun, and a great environment, it's not as "dangerous" as people like to make it seem. I think they do it because it is a PGCPS. But it's not dangerous at all. It's actually a pretty decent school, I recommend it.

I love this school! My daughter is a 4.0 student and although I give her all the kudos because of her dedication and ambition, I think that she is also inspired to rise above the rest because of the love and guidance she recieves from the teachers and staff. As we know leadership starts at the top.. Ms. Marrow is an excellent leader and I am sad to see her leave but 'm sure that MS. malone will pick up from where she left off and lead our young adults on the right path!

GPHS is an outstanding school when compared with any public school. I speak from experience from growing up in another state and through my travels in the military. GPHS is on par. Like ALL schools, there's room for improvement, but most of that is a nation school issue... training, pay, flexibility. GPHS is on par.

This is a very good and safe school. Many activities for the young people. It is sometimes challenging communicating with some teachers.

Gwynn Park High School is by far the greatest public high school in PGC I have ever been to, and I say this because I am currently enrolled as a student (Junior) at GPHS. Gwynn Park isn't as dangerous as people proclaim.Gwynn Park has a good working environment and the students there are very easy to get along with. Most us students are serious about learning. Our teachers are very dedicated to their job. Don't blame the school for some of the student's behavior.'blame the parents

This is not a place you will want to send your child. The parent involvement may be low because of the way people are treated there. Sport are good if that's all you want and not and education.
