We love Gattis! It feels like such a good family. Weve had amazing teachers and aides that have enriched my children's learning experiences there.

Mi hijo ha estado en el programa Dual por 5 años, todas las maestras tienen un nivel de enseñanza muy bueno. Para segundo grado mi hijo y sus compañeros hablaban, leían, y escribían en inglés y español, es también un buen grupo en math, me encanta que la nueva directora está al pendiente de las necesidades de todos los estudiantes y promueve mucho la convivencia y unidad de todos los miembros y familias de la escuela.

I love Gattis Elementary and I love the staff. Principal Griggs really cares and prioritizes high academic expectations. She has been a breath of fresh air this year - any time I need something, she takes the time to meet with me and talk. I do not want my son at any other school!

The Class Room Is Nice So People Are Rude... The Bathroom Can Be Dirty Sometimes Also Other Times The Toilet Is Not Flushed! But Overall I Like Gattis And I Recommend This School For Your Kids!

Sadly incompetent and unproductive. I am trying to find a school to transfer to.

I would rate our experience at this school as horrible!

I don't understand why there are so many negative reviews. We love Gattis. All the teachers and staff that we've interacted with have been great for the last two years. I look forward to the years to come.

My 4 kids are doing great there. 2 of them have disabilities and they are on top of everything.

As another parent said, it depends on who your special needs child is assigned to and whether or not they like you personally. If they don't, then your child will not be there long (as I was told directly by one of the teachers). These teachers really need to understand it's not their job to pick and choose who will succeed as this is a public school paid for by public tax dollars. Whether they like it or not, they work for the parents and students of the district and are legally required to provide an appropriate educational experience to ALL children, not just the ones they "like".

My kids love their school! Staff and teachers are friendly, professional, and work in excellence.

I am SHOCKED by some of these reviews, especially for special needs kids! I can't say enough great things about this school! This has been my daughter's first year at this school (she is in second grade) My daughter is on the autism spectrum and gets such great care by so many! The principal is the best I have EVER seen and my daughter's teachers have been fantastic! It was wonderful to finally have teachers believe in my daughter and push her to her potential! She was even accepted to be in the gifted and talented program next year. This is the first school to to not only meet her needs but to exceed every expectation I could ever have! I can't wait for my other child to start kindergarten there next year! Out of any school we've ever attended this one rates a 20 out of 10!

The personal in the office are so rough. If your child need special education, PLEASE don't register in this school; you need to fight with the for the needs of the child. One of the teacher tell me, wao how many kids need help and if there parents don't know, don't looking for help, so there's children get struggling and only need an evaluation. They need teachers that take care of them. It not a dangerous school, but it not a good school for special kids.

We are very disappointed in this school! While the Principal and most of the teachers are great, some of the teachers are not. And it only takes a few bad apples as they say. This is especially true of the Special Education department. It all depends on who your child is assigned to. Very disappointing!

Gattis is a great school and the teachers give the students a great start. What a fantastic environment!

My daughter attended this school from 1st grade through 5th grade. I absolutely loved it here! The principal, Jennifer Lucas is amazing and really cares about her students and staff. The teachers were great and worked hard to make sure the students were not only learning, but retaining their education. The assistant principal, Amie Schultze plays a huge role in the students' educational success. My daughter has learning disabilities and this school played a vital role in her success of overcoming and handling her disabilities. The assistant principal, Amie was always by her side to ensure she was learning comfortably and had the resources she needed. This school is also very good at eliminating bullies! Bullying is not tolerated here and the principal personally takes care of the matter. I couldn't be more pleased with Gattis Elem and miss it very much since my daughter moved on to the 6th grade!

Gattis has a great atmosphere. It feels like a family. We have so many parents that are committed and supportive. Our administrators go out of their way to know and relate to the students. *Be sure to notice the dates when you browse comments. I noticed several are quite a few years ago.

My daughter went to this school and I am not happy with it at all. I am glad that this year she doesn't have to come back there. The principal is great but for one little thing she will change completely with you. The assistant to the principal treat you like you are dumb. The only great staff there are the librarians, kudos to them for their great job! So disappointed with the teacher. Instead of look for solutions to make the kids more engage she will separate them from the group. Never got a good comment towards my daughter who in her old school was one of the best kids. First week in other school and I already receiving great feedback from her teacher. I am glad that we are in a new school this year.
