I substitute teach in this school and I think it is very nice. The principal is fantastic, the staff is very welcoming and friendly, and the kids are great. Can't ask for much else.

We are new to the school district this year. I see that a previous review reports that the teachers seem bored and self involved. I have found very much the opporsite! I believe the teachers are top notch, enthusiastic, effective, and very engaged! We have found the curriculum to be challenging and taught in creative, interesting ways. The "team" teaching concept allows teachers and students to get to know eachother well, and provides accountability and security for the student. Were very happy with the school.

I substitute taught at GIHS this year and it quickly became my favorite building to work in. The academics here are very strong and there is wonderful community support, which shows in the students. There's a few knuckleheads like there are at every school, but many of the students I met were very friendly, motivated, and well-behaved. The faculty and staff are very caring and work very hard to help students reach their goals. The principal is probably the best I've seen, very visible and consistent with rules, and runs a tight ship. Too bad he's retiring. I loved GIHS, and wouldn't hesitate to return if the opportunity presented itself.

Poor. The teacher my son has is disorganized and mean. The school nurse overreaches in her role to the point of intrusion with every communication tinged with an overhanging threat of government involvement.
