    I went to Paris Gibson Education Center. It’s different from the other high schools in Great Falls; Paris actually listens to the students and makes accommodations for them. I didn’t feel like my needs would be met until I attended Paris. They let me ease into school instead of jumping right in, the thing that had caused me to isolate myself from school before. Because of Paris, I’m graduating high school in 2 years instead of 4.

    My ratings are towards Paris. I can’t speak for the other two high schools, but Paris wasn’t an option.

    I loved the amazing school spirit that everyone in the school has. I remember the crowded pep rallies, the loud Bison chant, and the waves of blue and white that you would see at every game. If I could change one thing about the school, I would change the way that punishments are handled. I feel like there needs to be more consequences in that school as I saw very laid back actions when it came to taking responsibility.
    GFPS high schools prepare students well for any future goals while providing them the opportunity to learn in the classroom and beyond. As a current student I have been able to go on to 5 job shadows, an internship, take 2 dual credit courses and become CNA Certified. The teachers and staff I get to work with have truly impacted my education and will have a lasting positive influence on the person I become.
