Macon

Horrible experience. Would not recommend unless you are able to be give donations. Then I am certain your experience will be different. While my son attended Gilchrist a teacher grabbed my son and shook him and nothing was done. Another PE teacher refused to give my son water when he was thirsty. Another student showed my son his private parts and my son was punished for not wanting to sit by this student. All 5th grade students could submit baby pictures in the year book. My son was the only picture not included. We are school choice and my son's last teacher made incredibly rude comments to him in front of his classmates. Worst experience ever. I am so glad my son is done with Gilchrist. There is a no repercussions for poor treatment of students. The staff is so closely nit they protect each other. Lie and cover up bad behavior. I would not recommend this school to anyone.

If I could rate it lower on the safety scale, I would literally give it zero stars. This school is a big disappointment. It does not protect it’s students. They do not report incidents. They only report when social workers need to get involved. I thought the teachers and staff were supposed to protect the students, but they’re not doing any of that. This is very disappointing 010. Definitely do not recommend.

I don’t even know where to start. I was praying this year would start off strong. Please don’t come here. The head of school, Justin just reeks of pompousness. What is the school board trying to create!? Little Justin’s!? Pick another private school.

Absolutely first-rate education. When I arrived at Cornell University in 1985 after my excellent education at Maclay, Cornell was easy. You simply will not find a more dedicated faculty teaching a more advanced college prep curriculum. Maclay is among of Exeter, Andover, and Choate. Maclay School will prepare you for college and then the world. The brilliant and kind Paul Dickson, Cindy Boyd, Fran Sandon, Dean Gargiulo, and Elizabeth Hinson were all my schoolmates at Maclay and now teach there where they continue to raise the standard of prep school education to new and unparalleled heights of scholastic excellence. Michael Obrecht is a brilliant administrator and educator.I thank God every day that I was blessed to attend Maclay.Thank you, Maclay!
