[quote=Anonymous]Both my kids went through the GDS LS although did not start until K and 2nd, but your impression is not what we experienced. Actually thought the facilities were really good, the classrooms themselves have lots of natural light, despite the hallways being a bit dark. The field and playgrounds (several different ones depending on the age group) were pretty spacious. The gym was large, as were the art rooms and black box and multipurpose rooms. In our experience the best parts of GDS were the MS and US, although part of that was the LS principle who retired last year, and perhaps the new one is better. There were some fantastic teachers, and some younger teachers that seemed to constantly cycle in and out, often because of their own decisions to take time off to raise kids. Never particularly found any pervasive sense of kids being out of control. But this is a progressive school and is not going to function like a more traditional setting such as NPS or Beauvior (although all these schools are much more "progressive" than not these days in terms of how they interact with the children)[/quote]
