This school is bursting with positive energy. Each month they have something special to engage the parents and my child comes home motivated weekly. They are celebrated for every accomplishment and are really doing everything to give the kids a great experience. I love Gregory Drive because they think about the students during holidays and they also help families in need. My child has been at Gregory Drive since Kindergarten and she is so smart! I could have chosen any other school but Gregory Drive has the teachers and culture that works for my child. We will never forget Gregory Drive. This is my child's last year here and I doubt that any other school will make as many memories as the ones made at Gregory Drive.

I’m extremely disappointed with how Ed White High School handled a recent incident involving my younger sister.A staff member repeatedly misgendered my sister after being corrected and later referred to her as transgender. This was disrespectful not only to my sister, but also to the broader LGBTQ+ community. Educators are expected to de-escalate situations and model professionalism — not escalate or demean students.What’s most troubling is that my sister was disciplined immediately and multiple times, while the adult involved faced no visible accountability. This creates the appearance of bias and raises serious concerns about how student complaints are handled versus how staff behavior is addressed.Instead of focusing on accountability and transparency, the school’s response felt dismissive and defensive. That erodes trust between families and the institution that’s supposed to protect and educate children.I hope the administration reflects on this situation, takes appropriate corrective action, and prioritizes respect, fairness, and student well-being moving forward.
