Spent every day worried about getting hatecrimed for being transgender.
Also they employ a counselor who (through no fault of his own) is completely incapable of helping students due to being so forgetful that he will never follow-up on things.
Be aware that if you attend this school, people will automatically assume negative things about you. That is not an opinion, I've had it happen countless times when telling people that I went here.

This school ruined me mentally and I will probably live with the PTSD it has given me my whole life.

They do not care about us and don't actively teach

I am currently a senior at Grasso Tech and I am loving it. I've attended two high schools previous to here and Grasso is where I feel most at home. The teachers really care about the students, and even though the academics aren't exactly rigorous, it's in the shops where you find that the students are hard-working, intelligent, individuals. I am in the Culinary Program, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to pursue Culinary as a career, or even to someone who doesn't want the average high school experience, and maybe wants to learn how to cook. The other shops I cannot speak for but as far as I know they are all doing exceptional things. The music program has taken off the ground recently and is headed for great things. Hopefully in time and with interest Grasso will be able to have it's own Drama Club. The sports teams are also great, though Grasso does not have a Football team. Our Volleyball Team just went to states. I love Grasso most of all because of the feeling of acceptance that you get walking through the halls. It isn't perfect, but you won't feel that cold-shoulder that you do in other schools- where many students think they're all better than you. 5 stars.
