Curriculum

G-Star offers students traditional curriculum courses in math, language, and science at the standard level, Advanced Placement level (AP), and at the International Baccalaureate level (through the IB Program). Unique to the school, students get to choose between "film" or "theatre" as their art major for the duration of their matriculation.

School Statistics

On average, G-Star students are likely to perform 6% better than the school district average in maths and 16% better than the school district average in reading. Though G-Star has a 95% graduation rate, the school's College Readiness Index is poor at 36.8/100. This low score is mainly attributable to - (1) low AP participation rate: approximately 53% of the student body took at least one AP® Exam and (2) a low passing rate: 23% of the student body passed at least one AP® Exam.[2]
