Students that attend GHS face rigorous expectations that helps them grow quickly into young, responsible adults ready to impact our future and our society. Not only do we push students for success, but many time students that attend GHS are coming from failing elementary and middle schools which means they enter GHS behind the curve. Teachers and staff work hard and help students power through the curve so they leave well beyond the expectations of most high schools.

Glendale High School has an amazing student population. These kids are friendly and caring. They want to better their lives. The teachers care about each student's success, and many opportunities are available for extra help or tutoring. We are family! I am blessed to work at a school with enthusiastic supportive administrators who truly love their jobs and their school.

I have graduated from this high school.Now, I am attending in Arizona State University. This school has good teachers, administrator and staffs. Most of the students have scored good in AIMS. Students & teachers are really friendly. I will suggest anyone to attend in this school.

Very unprofessional office/attendance personnel. I believe that just because you're located in the ghetto, doesn't mean you have to be ghetto.
