Gillette Elementary School

Before we went to our public school my kids went to a catholic school. I was hoping that they would get that one on one attention, small classes and the caring, loving, and support. That was not the case so we switched. I loved this school and district. It's wonderful that Kindergarten and 1st grade are in their own building. The big 4th and 5th graders wont scare the little kids just starting out their school experience. They do ride the bus with the 2-5 grade which is great if they have older siblings. They can tell them all about their day on the quick ride home. This is a great district.

We moved from a "top rated" school district to this district and we are so happy that we did. It is truly a caring and nurturing environment in which our child can feel safe to grow and explore new ideas. No one falls through the cracks here. Everyone from the principal to the secretary is looking out for our kids. The parents are a big part of the school and their involvement is welcomed and encouraged.

I can't say enough about how wonderful this school is. The teachers and administrators bend over backwards to do everything thing they can to give each child exactly what they need. This is the warm, nurturing place you dream will be your child's first experience with school. My son has learned so much and has been so happy there!
