Grand Haven High School is a fairly large school located in West Michigan. People are friendly and teachers are fair. Although the winter can get long and cold, the school was recently improved their resources and advocacy for mental health. Additionally, the sports teams do well and there are many AP courses available. There is something for everyone in this large school. Even a cereal club! Grand Haven is public, but has a great reputation for being competitive and producing high achieving students. Artistically, the orchestra program is world famous, band is high achieving, and the musicals and plays are outstanding. Additionally, the community of teachers and administrators truly strive to ensure everyone is on track in and outside of the classroom. However, there issues such as lack of diversity, large economic differences, mental health crisis (although on the mend now), and virtual learning has been a disaster. Overall, a great school which offers something for everyone.
I liked the sports programs and the lessons taught by coaches and athletic administration. I thought that many of the coaches were very dedicated to their jobs as educators and coaches, and did their best to facilitate success in their athletes in all aspects of their lives. However, the administration is not very involved and seems to make decisions based on convenience rather than doing what is best for the school and students. Many teachers are checked out and do not cover all of the material necessary to be prepared for the next year or level.
As a student of Grand Haven High School, I would give them 4/5 stars. Its not perfect, but it is a great school. It has a student body of around 2000, so around 250 per class, the teachers are mostly nice, spare the few sticklers that appear at all schools. The office workers are so kind and will help you with whatever you need. The councilors, at least my councilor, is very open to schedule changes and will help you 100% of the way through making it a very simple process. GHHS offers a math lab for tutoring help, and many students will help tutor for volunteer hours for the National Honors Society. All in all its a welcoming school, and I’m glad I got my high school experience here.
