Granite City High School

The population of this school district is steady declining and the tax base has taken a tremendous hit. Teacher and staff demand high salaries with large benifits. The past District Superintendent made some very bad choices when it came to closing some of the schools and forcing parents to send their children to schools outside their neighborhoods. The district will take no input from parents. The district continues to look for ways to raise taxes and has been shut down 2 times by tax payers in less than 5 years. The level of education is at best mediocure considering the pay for quality teachers.

Horrible because they don't do anything for students that need help. They focus on the more popular kids

Our son was the fourth generation in my family to graduate from this school district. We have teachers that care so much for our children and do so many extra projects and give of their time for our children. Our son graduated with all the tools he needed to be successful in his future. I love this school district!

My oldest child graduated from GCHS. The teachers played a big role in preparing her for college which she has already graduated from with honors.

Three generations of our family has graduated from this school district and everyone's experience has been positive. Granite City High School supplies a quality education that prepares students for the real world. Many graduates leave GCHS and enter the work force. The college readiness rating is misleading, electricity, automotive, welding, building trades, machining, business technologies, are just a few of the career fields GC offers.
