Gaston Elementary School

This is an awesome school with so many good teachers and staff. My kids love going to school everyday. The new Principal is great too! He has done so many things to improve our school inside and out!

Okay first of all in my experience with the school long time ago back in like 2009 and 10 oh yeah it was good but now it's like it's gotten to go downhill like if you haven't looked at the math experience and social experience on top of that the English there's nothing my kids go to school and they're not really wanting to go to school because one is there's not enough experiments and there's not even Hands-On activities like for math all kids are supposed to be differently because all kids are not the same so honestly it's advising a marine needs to step it up a little bit and end up trying to incorporate math hands on where these children are excited to go to school as of right now these kids do not want to go to school here and for just a first of all with that you know the dismissal and suspension and all that stuff that's a joke there is no really suspension there there's no discipline really there I can tell you that one right now because like yeah my kid was getting bullied for quite some time now you know when my middle child was going there he got bullied in the 4K he got injured no one ended up tell me what happened still to this day no no apparently there's cameras there yes but when it come to discipline there is a letter and it is not because of where the kids live the poverty zoning and all this and that you know what I don't care it don't matter where that child is coming from all that matters is education when people bring up about oh is the area no I can tell you right now no it's not there's only one 4K class which honestly no surprise there is no ESL English Second Language there at all because they claim that the school is too tiny then why in the world would you bring back the 4th and 5th common sense but no I think it's time that Meryl steps it up there are no pictures really of anything artwork really barely ever there's no artwork on the walls yes there's certain pictures of people but what about the kids artwork show that off you don't see that there back in the day it was awesome there now that's lacking too much the reason why I would not recommend it is because they're lacking too much no discipline no art on the wall from the children like since it's gone downhill what's the point until they step it up and the school district needs to step it up too because honestly it's not only the school it is a school district itself stop with the Chromebooks pen and paper and pencil is all you guys need

Both of my daughters went to Todd. I was active as a parent, and found that the teachers were engaged in the art of teaching to a high level. Between the two of my girls, they had 10 different teachers. I only found one of those ten to be sub-standard, and she is now retired. They have a caring staff, and a good PTO with active parents.

This is a great school especially for Learning about God and religion my daughter loves it.
