It took me a lot of praying to finally decide on writing a review. This school was a gigantic let down for my child. I had my kid there from Kindergarten all the way to 4th grade and after 5 years my kid was coming home crying on how much she hated the school because a girl in the class would not leave her alone since 1st grade. The only teacher that ever tried to help because she noticed this girl was a super bossy bully ended up getting in trouble. The teacher apologized to me and let me know she would no longer be able to help because when she tried the principal at the time went off on her. So basically it was ok for the girl to keep harassing my daughter. My daughter was and always has been at the top of her class excelling in everything but apparently keeping the white family happy meant more to them than acknowledging this girl was making my daughter's life impossible. What's more, my daughter wasn't the only one to complain about this girl, so did other kids but nothing was ever done. In fact when the children would tell on the girl they were either called tattletales, or they would be told that there must be a misunederstanding because this girl would never do such a thing. Come 4th grade the girl started hanging out with 2 other girls and then also had them harassing my daughter. After 5 years of complaining to teachers, administrators, and the principal they still chose to do nothing. At the end they lied told me what i wanted to hear after 2 hours in a meeting and went about doing absolutely nothing about it except have the current vice principal write me an email basically saying my daughter was the problem and needed counseling. The school failed my straight A, hard working, National Junior Honor Society child and all to not upset the other parents. The school not only failed to protect her but academically failed the 4th grade class. February 2022 and they still hadn't even finished the 1st volume go math book and ended the year with less than half the volume 2 book done. History and Science they didn't even get past chapter 4 the whole entire school year and at 4th grade they still haven't even taught the kids how to write an essay or a formal letter or cursive. The staff is a whole other issue with how disrespectful and rude they are to the kids. The coach always in a bad mood telling the class he hates working there, the spanish teacher always telling the class that the kindergarteners are smarter than them .

I have 3 kids, one graduated from here and entered the hardest Magnet HS in Dade County, and currently attending UF, Two of my kids still at GV since K1 and both are in Middle school. Gladeview is more than an excellent school Gladeview is Home for us. I have to agree that the current administration is the strongest we ever had but it was much need it. Few parents that believed that because they paid a tuition they have the right to do whatever they want may not like but the truth is that being strict is not a bad thing. I will recommend this school to anyone.Bulling is not ALLOWED NOR ENTRATAINED

I was extremely happy with Gladeview and its teachers until the current administration came in and got rid of all the teachers that had bachelors degrees/teacher certifications. If you want to spend your money and send your child to a school where a realtor is your child’s teacher, by all means please do. If you want your child to receive a good education please avoid at all costs. The current administration does not believe in a loving nurturing environment, they are judgmental, rude and arrogant. They believe tyrannizing children is the way to educate them and don’t bother bringing it up to the principal, she does not care.

This school is an A+ school due to its many assets. Students are taught how to become fully devoted followers of Christ in a fun and loving way. This school is small, but it is a small loving FAMILY. I have heard the same comment from many parents: "everyone that comes and leaves this school feels welcomed and loved". I am proud to work at Gladeview Christian School and look forward to enrolling my child in Gladeview Christian School someday!

I am so happy that my children have received a good education at Gladeview, but above all academics, I believe they have been taught by true Christian educators who love God, which in turn, reflect that upon my children’s lives.

I've had both of my children at GCS since preschool. My oldest is leaving to HS next year & is so prepared. This school is a hidden gem. The leadership goes over & beyond to make sure it is a quality program & the teachers are excellent. It's a warm loving environment. The preschool is amazing too.

More than exellent, this is an awesome school blessed by God. You can feel a peaceful feeling since you enter through the gates. My 4 year old boy loves it so much. Every day he was so happy to go to school. All the personell is marvellous and the teachers very sweet. They are very organized, comunicative and accesible. We have to move from that area and we have to change our boy from there, but believe me, we will leave him there if our situation was other and we are heartbroken he has to leave Gladeview. Our son was truly blessed to be there!!!
