  • I am a graduate of GUHS Class of 74. It is a wonderful school. We all have a choice is this day and age where to send our children. As for logos on clothes, kids are there to learn not make a fashion statement! Keep up the Great Education Standards Gonzales!

  • Why do we have other teachers and school (...) that send their children to private school. I believe that if the Gonzales school district is not good enough for their children why should they work or hold office with in the district? It would be nice if they could would resign from their position?
