Education: For me, I'm not too disappointed with the education I got as an AP/IB student. The upper level teachers are pretty motivated and supportive (especially the AP STEM department), and have helped me achieve admission into my reach schools. As for the Honors/Regular coursework experience, I've heard horror stories of teachers openly allowing students to fail, not showing up to class, making weird sexual remarks, and disappearing midway through the year. Administration: Yikes. There's one person in the upper administration who publicly shames the students, pretty much harassing them for minor faults like dress code, jogging around (4 minute passing time for such a big campus is pretty diabolical), and just having harmless play with friends. I honestly AVOIDED them like the black plague and everyone else did too, except the kids that purposely tried to get on their good side. The other admins are pretty cool, I got to know them while I did office aide and they're generally good people. Many don't like the principal, but I think she is just fine.Social: In my experience, the social culture is a hit or miss. Generally speaking, the kids aren't very open minded. Your best bet of finding your friends is to join a group of some sort (sport/music/arts/etc) in freshman year. Very cliquey. I found that its quite easy to get singled out, it often feels like you know everyone but majority of the time, they're emotionally unavailable. For the amount of people at this school, you'll only find a very select few to socially connect with. OVERALL: Palo wasn't the worst, but definitely not the best. I've had good and bad times, and have made memories I'll forever cherish here, but if I were to reel back time, would I choose it again? Most likely not.

This school is amazing and has a lot of potential for greatness. The kids learn a lot from this school and it has a very good teaching community with all the teachers being very nice, kind and smart being able to teach the stuendents very well. Also Mrs. Mcumber, the Pre-Ap geometry and stats teacher is very nice, kind and smart being able to help many students in a variety of ways being an amazing teacher.

My child has gone to goolsby since he was 3 years old for the KIDS program. I have nothing hut wonderful things to say about the staff and the curriculum. Thank you Mrs Pel, Mrs Lori, Mrs Ward, and all of the Goolsby staff. Your support is nothing but appreciated in my household.
