Gulfport High School is a wonderful for kids with multiple interests. With state championships in girls soccer, football, 2nd in the world robotics champions, and a nationally recognized band, choir, and orchestra, all of the students are extremely busy. It is hare to find a student that is only involved in one activity. They also offer a collegiate academy program for students to pursue their associate's while they are still in high school! I do not have enough characters to brag about Gulfport high, but overall it is a well rounded school with a good community of students and teachers who work towards success everyday.
My experience at Gulfport High School was okay, but it could have been better. The school offers great opportunities. Most of the staff members at Gulfport High are involved with students learning, but some teachers show preferential treatment to certain students. Above all, the experience within the student society is very disappointing. Gulfport High is very diverse. There are students from many different cultures and backgrounds that attend, but do not mingle with one another. If you go into the lunch room, you will mostly see white students sitting with white students, black students sitting with black students, hispanic students sitting with hispanic students, etc. I understand that the school cannot force students to socialize with those who they do not want to, but I wish they would encourage students to interact with others that are not only from the same race. Outside of school, people with different backgrounds interact just as they should inside of school.
I am currently a senior at this high school and overall my experience has been a really good one. Outside of the stress of getting older and having to deal with responsibilities, the classes have been very solid. They are all challenging in their own ways, and each of the teachers are willing to help however they can if someone starts to fall behind.
The buildings are also very nice and well kept. I am the Team Captain for the robotics team at the school (Team Fusion Robotics), and our engineering room/shop is fantastic. There's plenty of space for everything we need, we have access to great tools and machines to use, and it helps our student members learn how to manage and keep organized a larger work environment than your average classroom. There is also a construction classroom and an auto-mechanics classroom that are the same way.
In conclusion, the school has made my high school experience really great.
