"My child is in "kindergarten" at Gavin and was "stuck" back in the early childhood (preschool) program for his whole kindergarten year. At his IEP going from preschool to kindergarten, the kindergarten teacher who attended told me to my face that she thought my child would hold back the rest of her class from learning if my child was in her class. Love the OT they have there that works with my child though. We are hoping to move out of the district soon. Maybe my child will have half a chance to catch up with his peers in another district!"

"gavin is a great school. i went there from 6th grade to eighth grade and the memories are irreplacable. its a small school, everyone knows everyone and its just like one big family. the teachers are great and everything is just fun. gavin doesnt have much money but it doesnt stop anything. they teach us the best they can and everyone that goes there or has loves it."

"I went to Gavin South for the past 4 years, and now as a highschool student I realized we could have had a better school along the lines of behavioral issues though it was a great school in terms of education and friendliness. It was as if we were one gigantic family. The teachers are amazing. They are understanding and fun. They do their jobs well. They kids got out of control a lot but there was always the school counsiler there to help. Over all, Gavin is one of the best schools around. Go Gavin!"

"Gavin south jr High is the best school I have ever gone to. The teachers are awsome and the closeness of all the students is the best. Of coarse theres bad things... Like any other school does, but the students at gavin seem to over come that and work together. I love this school and if your thinking to put you child in this school dont hesitate. They will love this school as much ad I Have."

"I love this school! And i hear my daughter talking to her friends on the phone saying she can't wait till school starts. So she can see all her friends. And saying what her teachers are gonna be like. And i aprove of these teachers and people that are going to this school the school is fun. Not to rich though but everyone gets along and still learns. And you get rewards for doing good things that make the students wanna do good things! So if your looking for a good school here is a great school! where everyone gets along and the teacher communicate with the parents and the children have a great time!It truely is a great school!"
