Enormous vaping issue at school. Principal is saying we are having bigger issues to solve. According to my son, at least third of school population is vaping. If you try to report it, bulling and pure threats toward kids. Whole process of buying and selling drugs and vapes in place, including local vaping shops, where no one asks for id and sell their merch to underaged. Security is saying oh we know them but can’t catch in action. Maybe need to make it as THE ISSUE and invest into cameras in the bathrooms!! Like Gainesville High did. You should hear what parents are talking, but do not want to make trouble for their kids. My three kids went thru this school, it is getting worse and worse!! Level of education is still OK and they are still holding up to the best school in area title, but not for too long. Drugs!!! Something needs to be done!!

The new principal is highly disappointing. She's consistently grumpy, rarely smiles, and often appears irritated. She lacks the ability to connect with students, parents, and staff, which is crucial in a leadership role. It's unclear how she even landed the position, but it's hard to believe there aren't far more qualified candidates. I truly miss the previous principal, who was far more effective and approachable. Let's hope she doesn't dampen and ruin Gravely which had a uplifting positive tone and energy.
