"Too many resources allocated for behavior problems, good kids penalized staff and administration make promises they don't keep poor communication"

"Exception made for some teachers which are dedicated to teach the Administration of this school seems out of touch with the community of families and children they are expected to serve. On top of that an assistant teacher is arrested for selling pot to a student...."

"Gunston is a great middle school with amazing diversity in its students and staff. Its partial immersion program in Spanish is top-notch and its Spanish for Fluent Speakers program allows students who speak Spanish at home but have never studied it the opportunity to become truly knowledgeable about their language. Excellent academic programs, dedicated teachers, an active PTA, and a principal who is always striving for the best make Gunston a perfect choice."
