- **4/5** — Mixed Feelings: My child has been at William Gilbert School for a year now and while we have had some very positive experiences, we've also had a few issues with communication between teachers and parents. The school's focus on community service is wonderful, but I feel that they could do more to engage with parents on specific issues. *(Mar 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent Education: Both my children attended William Gilbert School and we were thoroughly impressed with the education they received. The school's focus on Christian values and community service was particularly inspiring to see. The teachers were always supportive and the facilities were excellent. *(Sep 2021)*
