If you are a parent considering this school, please read this carefully.My son was part of the wrestling program, and the emotional and physical treatment he received from the coaching staff caused long-lasting harm. The environment was extremely unhealthy, and several students—including my son—experienced humiliation, unsafe weight-cutting demands, and psychological pressure far beyond what is acceptable for teenagers.The coach routinely pushed students to gain and lose weight rapidly, made degrading comments about their masculinity, and used intimidation instead of guidance. Promises were made to motivate them, only to be withdrawn later in a way that damaged their confidence and emotional stability.This was not discipline.This was emotional abuse and negligence from adults who should have been protecting our children.Years later, my son is still dealing with the consequences of the trauma he experienced there. He is not the only one—other former students have privately shared similar stories.Schools should be safe.Coaches should build character, not break it.I hope this review encourages the administration to evaluate how students are being treated and to ensure no other child goes through what mine did.

The GMS teachers are dedicated and care about the students’ success. There are tons of extracurriculars, from sports to fine arts, and a strong selection of electives that keep kids engaged. It’s a well-rounded, supportive environment that really helps students grow academically and socially. We’re so glad to be part of the Gorzycki community!

Clayton Elementary is outstanding! The teachers and staff are incredibly dedicated, knowledgeable, and caring. They create a welcoming and supportive learning environment where every student is valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. The curriculum is challenging, engaging, and contains a variety of hands-on activities and projects that help students develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills. The school also offers a nice range of extracurricular activities, including music, sports, and clubs, which help to foster a sense of community and school spirit. Overall, I am thrilled with the education my child is receiving at this school and would highly recommend it to any parent looking for a top-notch elementary education for their child
