My child has been a part of GOCA for basically their whole life, and now theyre graduating this year. Its been such an amazing journey watching them grow up in a school that truly cares. Theyve always loved attending, made great memories, and built strong friendships. Being a Global Outreach student is something theyve always been proud of, and as a parent, Im so grateful for the support and experiences GOCA has given them over the years. Thank you for helping shape who they are today.

This school is amazing!! My son has had no problems at all during his high school years. Hes always had nothing but great things to say. He has never once come home in a bad mood due to school, or the way people treat him. He has many friends and praises his teachers.

What an amazing school. The administrators here care about and protect each student. They know each student by name and show an interest in everyone there. Students are not just a number to them they are part of a community of learning. I highly recommend this school to any parent and students alike. They are an A school - Very impressive

This school does a great job of integrating diversity into the student body, but aside from that, It's not the best school if you want your child to have an enjoyable learning experience. Sure, the professors in this school might be greatsome of the best I've had, but I can't help but say this school lacks in being able to offer students programs that truly engage their interests and aid their academics. Classes in this school are also quite slow. It appears to me as if the school was lacking a properly paced curriculum as this school tends to be vastly far behind other schools in its curriculum throughout the year. This school recently integrated Yondr pouches into their system to make an attempt at solving the problem of students being glued to their phonesand instead pay attention in class, but failed to realize that truly, it was never just about the phones, but about the curriculum and student body as a whole, albeit I get that this school might still be quite new, so not much is expected. Plenty of reworking needs to be done to catapult this academy towards a bright future. Aside from all of that, this school has the best teachers I've ever met. It's a shame it's held back by the lack of a good curriculum and student body. I get that the student body might not be completely the school's fault, but it should start taking action on taking misdemeanors more seriously. While the large student body might look appealing to an outsider, but a new student might be overwhelmedeven intimidated, by the lack of proper student onboarding and the rude, large group of students. Do not send your child to this school unless you are completely unable to enroll them in a school of higher academics, such as a magnet or private school. If you want your child to have a refined and comfortable career in the future, it would be best for them to receive proper preparation at a different school.
