[quote=Anonymous]I have two friends that are teachers at GHS. When you are at least an “ok” student who is not getting in trouble, skipping school or belittling your teachers-you will have a much higher grade for the same level of work than a Wootton student would have. This is simply because of your peer group. Your grades are higher because doing the literal bare minimum is so unexpected it stands out far more. So yeah, having great grades at GHS is pretty meaningless as compared to other high schools. So I guess if your kid is struggling and you are worried about them getting into college-it would be a great choice because they will have to do a lot less to succeed. “the curriculum is the same in every school in the county” sure-but the way it is presented/graded etc…is definitely not the same.
