Let me start by saying that my son went her from kinder thru 5th grade. He had great teachers every year, but it also has to do with you as a parent to help your child get thru the school year. There are always going to be distractions and some of the staff that is not so great. I do have to say that once the new principal started running the school , things have improved very much. ty ms carrillo.

The Teachers truly care about the welfare of the students. They listen and hear what the students are saying - allowing the Teachers to better educate the students. Whenever I'm volunteering at the school I see nothing but smiling faces and bright eyes

I don't know how the school is now but when I went there, in the late 80's early 90's, it was one the best experiences a kid could have. I'm sure most of my teachers have retired but I do miss them, especially Mrs. Osborne, wonderful woman who cared deeply about each and every student. If the teachers there today are anything like she was back then, the kids are in great hands

Gates School has everything necessary to be a great school: excellent teachers, strong leadership and challenging academics. We also have great extra curricular and after school programs as well as providing for any and all needs of our students. The staff at Gates cares deeply for our children. I should know, I teacher there.
