This is an extremely well built school and unfortunately it is being demolished within the near future. I feel that this building needs to be saved and somehow leagel action needs to take place in order to save this historic landmark and memory lane for many of us almini who attended there over the past nearly 80 years. If anyone has interest in saving this landmark, please give your comments and post them all over the internet so that we have a fighting chance to save this building and turn it into a community center that can offer many valuable learning areas for adults, plus it is near center of town and very easy to find with the help of google maps and map quest. HELP SAVE OUR ORIGINAL GIRARD HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING.
Girard High School is a great High School. The people and environment is so friendly. Most of all I love the School Spirit! Go Indians!
very political school, not impressed with education
I am an alumni of Girard High and all of my children have attende Girard High over the last 15 years. In that time what I have noticed most is that the spirit and pride that being a part of Girard High School has seem to have faded away. There was a great leader once, being the principal, many years ago, and when he retired hence the greatness that Girard High once had seemed to go with him. You are only as good as who leads you... it seems as if mediocrity has taken over.
I think that Girard High School is a school that should be better then it is. The extracurricular activities are avalible yes, but not that great.
The academic programs at girard high school aren't anything special. Many of the teachers are very judgemental and the students are VERY disrespectful. My sons and daughter attend girard and if i had it my way, they would never go back! Girard does have an awesome band program. The director is a young guy who loves the students and lets them decide what to play. The students are very much in control of thier programs for the band with supervision of parents. Parent involvment in this school is poor.
