This school gave me everything I needed. Gleason prepared me for college while emphasizing key elements like responsibility and self-integrity. You cannot beat the “community” feel you get from being apart of the school.

Awful! I went there and we had older teachers who knew what they were doing but i sent my kid there and mine alone with other kids and parents have chosen to remove our children from this terrible school.

I have looked at the reviews and one particular was outrageous. In no way has a student been made to stand in front of class and be ridiculed by his classmates by his teacher's commands. The post was defamation. It is quite untrue. Now on education, yes Gleason school does not have everything. But people have to understand that we are a small school so we don't get the funding that bigger schools do. You can take online classes here and if you go and seek help, you will get it. But just expecting it, it will not happen. Our test scores are phenomenal compared to our county and state. We do very well. Gleason can pick favorites. I see it happen. In a community where everyone was basically born and raised here, you are going to see it. It is a nice school and there are barely every any fights. In the past 5 years, I've only known of 5 or 6 MAYBE. And they were so minor such as a slap. No one ever got seriously hurt. In my opinion, Gleason is the best of the county. Plus, with a smaller school your child will be known by name and have one on one time with the teacher with needed. Our teachers care and put in a lot of effort. I love it here.

This school is like a closed society. My children transferred there and have yet to fully assimilate after several years because of the attitude toward them.
