The school is run by bald skin heads/Klu Klux Klan members. The staff are just coaches with teaching as a side job. The only way the school will care about a student is if they are rich white and play baseball.

As the previous parent mentioned, though there are positive experiences over the years with generations of graduates, there are still those same negative ones. The administration is definitely a problem, instead of effectively supporting the students they themselves are the ones bringing them down. They will take your kid and your money but don't ask them for respect or equal treatment. If you aren't part of that elitist group then expect to get ignored. I had a child accused of selling lunch tickets and threatened by staff without even hearing her out and when it was later found out they were being stolen from our mailbox did they even bother to apologize of course not, their excuse "well no one got hurt", explain that to the ethnic child who's first reaction of her you got was she was doing something illegal. I have another child on her last year and once again the staff has allowed mistreatment, allowing a janitor to yell and throw stuff at these kids simply for borrowing trash bags. These kids were excited for their new initiative to better the school but instead they have their spirits crushed. If they were part of the political elitist group this school is run by the administration would be all for it. It's sad to see a school be focused on nothing more than money when these kids are our future.

While having many positive experiences over the years though generations of GHS graduates, one negative persists. Many Glendora administrators and some teachers are not in the profession for the right reasons. They will say anything, any lie, to make parents go away, not all parents, not the ones that are their friends, not the ones that work for the district, not the ones that have enough money or community prestige. The parents that just want the best for everyone's children are mocked and laughed at. While the district will take any student and the money that follows them, don't expect to have fair and equal treatment from the district and especially the current principal Mr. Paul Lopez. You can't just blame him because he has the full backing of Dr. Voors and the board for this elitist attitude and behavior. Hopefully as this current wave of citizens are taking back their country, good parents will take back their school and we will be able to say GHSi is great again.

I attend ghs they have great courses but they make it difficult for students who know that they aren't going to a 4 year right out of college by not helping them set up a schedule that will fit their academic ability. And I have had a lot of teachers who are lazy and don't teach. They just hand us packets and expect to learn. I would say 4 out of 5 teachers that I've had have treated other students better than they treated me. You have to be someone big in order to be treated normal. And one of the worst things about GUSD is star testing. They stress student out and cause them to cram just so they try to do well on a test that only benefits the school. This cause teachers to rush through important lessons. Sorry for ranting but I just wish the school had a better system to benefit kids with different learning abilities
