Imagine West Gilbert Elementary School

This school has gone downhill this year. Some of the office staff is unfriendly on a daily basis. They seem overwhelmed and there is alot of bullying that gets ignored. However most of the teachers are very caring, but iwould not reccomend this school due to that fact that there are alot of kids their with discipline problems.

I have been teaching at West Gilbert for two years now and I love working there. All the teachers care about the students and they are very good at differientiating curriculum for students with different needs both high and low. I feel that I am a part of a community that loves children and helping them enjoy learning. I highly recommend West Gilbert.

I disagree with a previous post. WG is a great school to work for! We are treated with respect and I love going to work each and every day!

I am a parent of this school and I am extremely happy with my daughter's teacher, past teachers, and the entire school. My daughter's current teacher is dedicated to making modification to make sure she is learning to her potential. It is greatly appreciated. When walking into the school building you get a sense of community and everyone working together to see the school be successful. Again, this is greatly appreciated! Thank you WG for all the wonderful years!!

I work for WG, and I do not believe some of the things I see or hear go on, and are just let go. Most of the teachers are great, but a few of them do not have the best attitudes. The only reason I stick around is because I simply love the children.

My son has gone to school there for two years. He is in the 80% percentile nationwide and he suffers from ADDHD, which the school has worked hard with him to overcome. They have excellent teachers and staff. I love the uniforms. Much more of a discipline atmosphere than at public schools. My son will go there until High School

We had a wonderful teacher which made our experience good but the school itself and front office staff and principal are average at best.

West Gilbert has a very caring environment where all staff members know my child and administration genuinely cares about the growth of each child and is committed to having effective teachers in the classroom.

Our children have gone there for 5 years and due to the changes from the administration, we have removed our children form the school. I will miss some of the families and great teachers that we used to have. Would definatley due research before enrolling in this school.

West Gilbert offers a great PreK curriculum that gets your child ready for kindergarten. It is a center-based classroom with weekly themes. Our child's academic needs were challenged, and he still learned the important social skills for a 4-year-old. We are looking forward to another fantastic year at West Gilbert!

My children have been at West Gilbert since preschool. They are now in 2nd and 3rd grade. We stay at West Gilbert because of the highly qualified compassionate teachers. I feel my children's education is individualized to fit their needs. They both have many opportunities to express themselves. The staff are always available to discuss my children's progress and needs.
