I don't have a review to write at this time, I am enquiring about Goose Creek High School as my son may attend the school in the fall.
The principal and staff go to extraordinary lengths to make sure the school enviroment is safe and condusive to learning. The demographics of the school are varied with most being below the poverty level. Everyone comes together with great pride because of the efforts of the school, despite lack of funding.
I am a GCHS graduate. I have always been glad I went to Goose Creek because of the amazing teachers and staff. Any problems I had, or bad grades, were all my own fault. I believe it is a common trait in many teenagers, to have the attitude that education is not a personal responsibility. Any student who chooses to dedicate him/herself to learning at GCHS will receive a thorough education from many wonderful teachers. --As for parents being upset about being called after school hours, do you really expect teachers to call during school hours, while they are supposed to be teaching?? Really?? I think that's a bit absurd.
This is in response to 'Fran Marie', a parent from NY taht is upset with GCHS. As an educator here, I take exception to the negative perception that we are 'stuck in time' with the Civil War, far from it. Our Global Studies and World History classes are exceptional. Perhaps the reason her son had to repeat the course was due to an inadeqacy from his experience in NY. As far as putting a stamp on a letter or charging for lockers, this is no different from hundreds of school districts around the nation. We are all in tough financial time and must maintain our facilities in unique ways. If her son is on home bound and she is dissatisfied with the quality of education her son is recieving at GCHS, then perhaps she should consider home schooling since she gained more knowledge 'up North'.
