Very good. We had to move and teachers as well as students showed lots of love for my kids. Teachers went out of their way to say the kids talented and special. They pushed my kids to joint clubs and teams.

I would rate the experience as “awful” but this is what my husband allows for my stepson.

I have been going to Gwynn Park since my freshman year and I have to say that this school needs to do better. Most of the staff only care about the "cool kids". While others don't care at all. There's only a few teachers that actually want to connect with students and teach. The ROTC program needs tuning. Most students don't even want to be in so they refuse to take it seriously. The staff in this department doesn't teach you all of the marching steps like "column right" "to the rear" etc. They only teach those steps to drill team and expect everyone else who's not on drill team to know. As far as administration they tend to use favoritism. For example if a non popular couple pecks each other on the lips its against the rules via PDA which is true but if another one are looking like they are dry humping each other some how thats ok. Or they "ignore it". And for a no bully zone school theres still alot of bullying. I used to be bullied in my freshman year due to my skinny stature and it would be in front of their faces but they looked away. The education is ok but its only good to those who were lucky to get the teachers that want the job.

I never experienced negativity at this school the staff is wonderful and the teachers do make time and stay after and work with students that tend to have a little difficulty. Parents must remember to communicate with all the kids teachers. It is very important to be considered regarding your child education..
