11/6/2012studentThe only positive things about this school are the social studies programs, and the pan program. Other than that, no thank you. I transferred to the other high school in this town about a month ago.
10/16/2012parentI am a parent of student that went to GSA, but transferred three years ago. I would just like to say, that I expected better of this school. I had heard positive things about the school. But my daughter was treated terribly by some of the office administration. . But all in all, this school has some serious issues if you dig deeper in. Not a positive environment at all! As for the academics, I was very impressed by the english and art program. There is much work needed if this school wants to progress. Many people agree with me as well. Thank you.
8/22/2012otherI was a student here for a while, and I did enjoy it. But this past winter I was bullied out of the school not only by the students, but by office administration themselves. I do not recommend this school by any means. Though some of the teachers are wonderful, the environment is extremely harsh. I say send your child to Ellsworth, or MDI. Not GSA!
4/12/2012parentMy daughter attended GSA for all four years and overall had a first rate education. She applied to 8 colleges and got into 7, including her first choice. Most of her teachers were smart, caring, dedicated people. The schools is small (300+ students) and open to all students in the surrounding community. It also has a small residential program that attracts mostly international students. As a results, GSA has a wonderful "real world" feel to it. The school's facilities are not top-notch, but they are making improvements every year. Bottom line: this school is a gem! If you live in one of the surrounding towns, you pay no tuition: by law, Maine towns without public high schools must pay tuition for their resident students. But even if you live where you must pay tuition, it's a bargain. We could have sent our daughter to a private "prep" school. I'm glad we did not.
4/12/2012teacherI have taught at GSA since 2003. It's an exceptionally good school: student-centered and mission-driven. The students are great. The school "looks like" the surrounding community because all local students can attend at no cost. The administration supports its teachers.
3/4/2012otherThis school was an immense disappointment to me. The environment as a whole had such negative energy. Thought, I do applaud some of the teachers for such great teaching. But overall, I do not recommend this school. GSA has been going downhill rapidly, and is still continuing. I hope this helped.
3/15/2006former studentAcademic programs: first rate. A little weak in the math department, but very good hard sciences, English, computer science, and social sciences. In addition to a thriving sports program, the school also very successful music, art, drama, and extracuriculars.
12/13/2004studentI am a Junior at George Stevens Academy AKA GSA and the best thing about this school is the faculty esp. the office ladys and men strive to get you into different clubs and extra curriculars so colleges will be more likely to accept you. Also it makes your experience more memorable!!
10/17/2004studentAs a graduate of GSA i found great changes. For one the athletic depatment needs some serious help. There are too many prejudice in this school. For instanse Boys teams such as basketball and baseball are well funded while the womans softball and basketball are less funded. According to the athletic department it is because of fundraising.
