We have a new principal who is doing a fine job. But one of the things parents wanted out of our new principal was particiapation and support at our athletic events. I have seen him at football games but never at a soccer game. We have one home game left and it is senior night. I would like to see him support the team even though we haven't had a winning season this year. I am wondering if he has attended any other events to support his students? These student-athletes work hard and it would be nice if it would be recognized by the administration.
Both of my daughters attend Garner Magnet High School. It is fast becoming a school that cares about education and the arts through parent involvement and the recent International Baccalaureate status. It was one of the lowest scoring schools in Wake County and is climbing upward to becoming one of the best. Drew Cook is the new Principal and he has contributing tremendously to the efforts of improving this schools reputation and educational standards.

I am a student at Garner Senior High School and I can say that it is a good school to attend because the other students there don't mess with you unless you mess with them. ( I never mess with anyone ) Of course students there will occasionally talk trash or bad mouth others but other than that everything is great. Most parents come to the school complaining about students bullying them or picking on them but that is because their child has started it but they never tell their parent they did. Overall the school is fairly clean, fair teachers, and nice students.

What a wonderful school! Well above average education experience. After much bad press a few years ago, I almost opted out of this school...boy am I glad I didn't. This school's staff is amazing, the classes and programs offered are top notch and the students are above average, best of all my son loves everything about his High School.
