When I first came to the school, I assumed the science clubs that it offered were still available, but unfortunately, these clubs are no longer available due to a lack of resources. Overall the school is not bad nor are the teachers. Students come to this school with the same assumption that I had at the beginning. Some had left too. I would like for the school to thrive and to do that, they need to change their game.

It wasn't very bad. The only thing that is bad is some of the students, many the middle schoolers (many of them are insane) and that the staff don't always deal with many situations. Also, the school is very unorganized yet they don't deal with it. My guidance counselor who works with juniors and seniors currently doesn't always respond back. I would like things to change as the school has been going downhill before but I don't know if it will.

My experience at Qghs has had its ups and downs. I would say that it has improved as I've moved up the grades. In 9th grade, I felt like I did belong because I was new to school and it felt unfamiliar to me but now that I'm in 11th grade, I have a place in this school. Staff know me, everyone in my grade to friendly to each other and the school environment has improved from dull to vibrant. There is always something to do in the school or an event to partake in. The students make the school fun and we have the staff to support the efforts of the students.

(Review of the middle school)The school has some amazing teachers, especially the special education teachers and 6th grade social studies teacher, but extracurriculars are lackluster.

The fricking dean took my phone because it was out even though I had no time to put it away since I was helping someone with something important that the teacher couldn't do and I had to do my classwork, this school is horrible. The principal is two faced and is also very rude when she is rude, if y...
