The Gerry School provides a wonderful, caring and comprehensive learning experience. All of the teachers are experienced and enthusiastic about teaching. The only reason I gave the school 4 stars is because of the actual physical building. It is over 100 years old and it shows. However, I would much rather my children have a fantastic academic and social experience in a building which needs updating, than to have a lesser experience in a bright, shiny new building. I am very grateful my daughter has the opportunity to attend this school.

The Gerry school is a neighborhood gem, it is so very sad that due to poor care it's days are numbered. My three children attended the school and the experience was tremendous.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

Oops! We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Public and charter school test scores for most states come from the state Department of Education. The most common reasons we might not have this data are either that not enough students took the test or that the school was recently opened, and its scores have not yet been reported.
