School Reviews麻豆果冻传媒>4 1/20/2020Greer High School is a great place to learn. The teachers seem to really care about you. It used to have a little bit of a bullying problem, but that seemed to stop my last two years there. The arts programs are amazing, especially band and choir.2 9/26/2007The school has great programs and overall they could be an excellent school, but, they don't seem to enforce some of their own student codes and they don't have a no tolerance policy. There's a lot of fighting and kids that like to instigate fights with other students they feel are inferior. The school building is brand new and the Principle is really nice, when a problem is brought to the school's attention they act on it. I think though if the school would inform the students that a no tolerance policy is in effect on name calling, student sexual harrassment and fighting among other things this school could be top rated.Review Greer High School. Reviews should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
