Terrible experience dealing with the administration. This was years ago, so hopefully, the bad eggs are gone, but from what I can tell, most of those incompetent, unfit staff members have been promoted to higher positions within the county school system. Ever heard of Channing Tatum? He absolutely hated his experience at this exact school. That was almost 20 years ago, I and I can personally confirm it has not become any better.

El servicio y la atención en las oficinas son terribles , el personal te deja en espera en el teléfono fácilmente 30 minutos, si no dominas el lenguaje inglés correctamente te tratan como basura, recoger un estudiante para una cita , es todo un logro pues no puedes entrar a la oficina tienes que llamar y nunca contesta, si necesitas orientan para documentos de atletismo nadie sabe nada , nop Esta escuela y su personal en la oficina es todo un desastre

STAY AWAY FROM BAND!!!!

In short this schools eh. Take it from me a student there are great parts of this school and really REALLY corupt parts. The good parts are alot of the teachers and elective teachers are very good at there jobs and are very supportive. Now the bad. Due to the recent lay offs they have fired every right leaning/ conservitive teachers, as well as all of the young teachers. Also stay as far as possible from the band and conversivtory program, it may seem like a great idea at first but Alverez and Dell (both teachers of the program) will distroy your passion for music. They are very corupt. In obtaining there members they force middle schoolers into signing life changing contracts. They will NOT let you leave these contracts as well as forcing you to lose 2 electives for your entire high school career. I have tried to contact the staff about this problem and unfortuatly they know, they all know, and they dont care. It really is sad to see the staff of this school forcing students through something so corrupt. I thought school was to teach kids about the world and get them ready for it and help them learn from there mistakes not forcing them through terrible conditions.

In short play your cards right and you will have a great experence.

Outstanding music program headed by 2018 BHS/NAfME Mucis Educator of the Year.
Debbie Cleveland, aka Mrs. C is great and really cares about her students. She goes above and beyond.

Stay away from the Music and Leadership Conservatory! The mandatory marching band will cost you far more than just getting those (AP & Dual enrollment) humanities credits at HCC, and you don't have risk having your student being carted off on an ambulance like what happened earlier this year.

The STEM classes are okay about homework but the Band program has 15 hour Saturdays and 11 hour rehearse-a-thons.

Posted: October 18, 2019

The STEM teachers are fine. Chorus is great! Band teachers are under investigation by the Fed Dept of Ed - BEWARE!

Posted: October 18, 2019

The leadership at the school has no integrity, compassion, or respect for parents, students, or district policies.

Posted: October 18, 2019

Morrill and Eisenhauer are two condescending, arrogant, hypocritical, buffoons that could not manage a Taco Bell.

Posted: October 18, 2019

The Band Dept recently lost several student's confidential medical information forms, and their solution was to threaten and bully the students for replacement forms by threatening their grades without even explaining what happened to the original forms. They are under a Fed investigation for FERPA violations for this.

My disabled child was treated very badly by school staff and administration at Gaither.

As a parent, I have always taken pride in being a part of each school my child attends. Always wanting to lend a hand and offer my freetime to any program. Since the principal and AD have been changed to the current members, this is not encouraged or accepted because they don't want to do more work than they have to. When I as a parent want to help and offer my time and services but always have been told NO because it would cause more work for them or the people involved. They only want to do what is required and have never chosen, at least all the times that I have offered, to do anything extra. Not the type of school I would reccommend if you are interested in "the interest of your child". Their interest is only in what works for them (the principal and AD) Truly sad

Posted: March 10, 2015

In the last two years the administration has gone downhill. The AD is very disrespectful toward students and peers. Because he rules with fear instead of respect, many will not approach since he makes people feel stupid or unimportant. Not a role model I would want my children around.

Gaither is a good school to go to if you are looking into the athletics program but the student affairs office staff is very rude to parents, students, and other staff members. They do encourage individuality and having fun at pep rally's etc.. but also dont show much respect to students and most teachers allow the students to cuss, have out phones and put on inappropriate media without the parents consent.

This school is fantastic for academics, sports and their very large marching band program. The band program has had an instrumental affect on many kids. So, many of the kids are high achieving and a lot of that is just the hard work and determination that they show for both the band program and their academics. I have been impressed all 3 years that my daughter has been there and look forward to her final year as well as when my younger child attends Gaither. The entire staff at Gaither is incredibly dedicated and cares tremendously about the student body. Responses from teachers and staff from phone calls or emails is quick aside from what we know to be busy times (beginning of year, FCAT testing or AP testing). In those cases, the teachers have their hands full. The kids are wonderful and truly treat one another with the utmost respect. Fantastic school!

This school, admin, teachers and staff will make youy thrive if you wish. They will pick you up when you are down, and show you humility when you reach the top of the world.

Very nice school, excellent administration, great students, tutoring available. However, horrible staff teachers in the Exceptional Education Department. They have no clue, as how to help students with LLD or exceptional education needs in any core academic area such as math, reading and/or science. The football coach does not return parent phone calls, teachers do not respond to emails. Regular education teachers are excellent. Overall, this would be a five star school if they did an overhaul within the Exceptional Education department, encouraged/afforded more students to play sports, and worked harder at helping all students succeed.

Both my boys had a great 4 years here. My oldest was involved in the Band program which is one of the best in the county. My youngest just graduated and participated on both the baseball and football programs, which were both well run. Academics were challenging, and they both graduated with over a year of college credits and earned several academic scholarships. I was pleased with both the administration and faculty, and would recommend this high school to any parent looking for a solid school that supports both the arts and athletics..
