I very dislike the students and the the other staff members. One of the other teacher's husband came in during my lesson. VERY disrespectful. Would not recommend teaching here due to the disrespect. There are special Ed students in this school that are very hard to teach so they can move on when the
Posted by a teacher on 3/16/2026DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT put your child in this school if you are looking forward to encompass them with college preparation, academic excellence, competent staff, diversity, and an overall respectful culture with behaved, college bound students. Yes, Gorton High School lacks all of qualities ment
Posted by a student on 11/11/2025Not a great school sadly. I had high hopes for this school but I regret it.
Posted by a parent on 6/28/2025I'm aware there are good schools and bad schools but what I know about Gordon HS is revolting to see how people are putting it down. If your child is lazy and does not want to do, the teachers will be annoyed and frustrated. My son has been attending Gordon and is graduating this year. He is an hono
Posted by a parent on 4/1/2015Gorton is a horrible school and has been for the past twenty years. It seems to be getting worse and worse. The teachers are lazy and rude. They show lack of respect towards students. The students are nasty, there is a lot of bullying and fights. No one pays attention in class - it is hard to learn

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school’s good for the most part. It was my child’s first day of school and it all went really good. Teachers are really good. Classes are a decent size. They call for everything, which keeps parents in the loop. Good schoolParent Review1y ago - Mlk Jr High Tech And Computer Magnet School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI graduated from here last year, and it was quite the experience in my nine years at this school. In middle school, there were crazy fights, kids threw books at eachother in one fight, a girl stormed into a classroom and went all WWE on someone, mind you that girl still attends the school. Only a few teachers really cared, they were great but the ones that truly cared left so, not like it matters. This school has a great special ed program, atleast from what I hear I myself was never in it but they still do agood job giving them what they need eitherway. If you're an alumni of this school good luck trying to visit, I visited a few weeks ago during school hours, I was walked off the property since I didn't know I couldn't visit whilst school was in session, which like okay thats fine. A few weeks later, yesterday at the time this review was posted, I visited again, during dismissal to just see some of my friends who still go there, and then the principal informally trespassed me, so like, okay fun.Other Review6mo ago - School 9
