I did enjoy my time at Gainesville High School. I was presented with many opportunities to challenge my mind and meet people of different backgrounds and cultures. Most teachers that I had the honor of being in their classes devoted their time and on occasion their own money to see their students succeed. My mother actually works for Gainesville High School and while she has had her own struggles, as everyone has, she loves her job. Her praise of the school was one of the leading factors that made me decide to go to the school in the first place. Gainesville is a place for growth and opportunity.
The Gainesville city school system has given me some of the best memories along with an amazing education. Gainesville High school is constantly providing its students with opportunities to learn about the different options we have post graduation. If you take advantage of these opportunities, you will be more than ready to move into college, the work force, or any other path you choose to take. One thing I wish I could improve is the lack of support towards female sports. As a former high school softball player, and a soon to be college athlete, I feel that it is vital that all schools support female sports the same way they support male sports.
Overall the school was designed for educational purposes and it provided learning spaces and learning environment for the students under the direction of the teachers. So I would say it had done its job but compare to the honored students to the "not honored" students definitely was treated unfairly. One was treated with more attention and opportunity while the other was getting the more slower and not needed classes.
