Garden Grove High School

I’m a fan of gyms. I’m also a fan of gyms that have a place for children to play organized sports such as basketball. However, the small gym (not their main gym) at this school makes me feel sick to my stomach.
I have played many sports for a majority of my life. I just realized that most of the sports I’ve played has been outdoors. I’ve been to this gym as a spectator watching my nieces play basketball for their SEO league. This small gym needs an upgrade. What I do not like about this gym in particular is the chemical smell. It’s not the cleaning type of chemical smell, but more of the plastic chemical smell that is possibly emitting from their rolled up wrestling mats.
That smell can’t be missed. Once you open the doors you get a massive offensive waft of that chemical smell.
This gym serves it’s purpose of having a place for kids to play, but I seriously can’t get over that smell.
Sorry GGHS, it’s really not you, it’s your toxic smelly small gym.

I went here freshman year, and transferred in the first two months. I had to go back here for summer school my sophomore year. and I feel bad for all the students who went/​go here. The school looks like a prison. The gym is VERY small and had a broken ac when I went. The restrooms are filthy, and the classrooms are old and ugly. My boyfriends cousins go here and they hate it.

love the band! i can hear them practicing every morning! they are sounded great! i love hearing them play during the games! very entertaining! the cheerleaders could use some help in the personality department but over all they are not that bad! love going to the football games in thursdays!

Great place to play tennis or if you like to run on the track. Also has black top basketball courts.

The 4 years that I spent at GGHS were good, bad, fun, heartbreaking, triumphant, with a few failures thrown in for good measure. But I met some of my best friends here. I was part of an award winning band and colorguard [who cares if we were the only ones in our class… 1^st place is 1^st place!]. We had the best school colors in the district. We were a mix of every race you could think of. And overall it’s a crazy ass school and I’m glad I went there.
Oh and it gets 5 stars especially for the cheese rolls. I still dream of those cheesey rolly goodnesses… with a carton of chocolate milk. mmm!!! That would make anyone’s day fantastical!
