C V T Gilbert Elementary School

Its an ok school has everything in its favor to be a good school but staff definitely needs to step it up. We need friendlier staff starting with the front desk to the teachers and management. We forget to use our manners and remember we work with kids who need patience, kindness, love. I feel like this school is wanting to always have there mean faces on and be so strict maybe for the older kids but dont forget there's younger ones there too and they have to love to come to school and see friendly faces not grouchy strict faces all the time.

My son started the Prek3 program this school year. By far the WORST EXPERIENCE! Principal is extremely rude and my sons teacher at the time didn't have any classroom management skills.They also don't follow the School Handbook. Myself or my husband would get called multiple times to pick up our son because he wasn't dancing during dance class or he was crying. He wasn't rpc or suspended. They would say "Oh he needs a break at home, bring him back tomorrow" .Principal would tell me our son tested low on test scores but she wouldn't give me the test scores for weeks. The stories they would tell us about our son was ridiculous. I caught them in their lies multiple times and they refused to take accountability. All the times I asked for a conference with his teacher, it was ignored and was told to wait until parent teacher conferences which was weeks away. As soon as my husband asked for a meeting with the principal and teacher it scheduled right away but she insisted on bringing 6 other staff members to the meeting and giving him some test scores that looked as if it was put together right before the meeting. The test scores didn't add up at all. Stating that our son needs to be on a behavior plan. Our son was withdrawn that same day. Our son is thriving and happy at his new school.Also be careful sending your child to after school care. They lack supervision. I could go on and on about our experience. Definitely don't recommend this school.The school lacks communication, professionalism, parent engagement and supervision.

I have two children going to this school. Since kindergarten. My daughter is currently in middle going into 8th grade. My son is going into 5th grade. I love this school. Teacher are very helpful. My kids and I have never had a problem with no one.
