We have had a great experience at B.D. Gullet. The school has a lot of kids but they are extremely organized.

The best and coolest principal!! My kids love this school.

We just completed our first year. I was a little apprehensive given how many students attend that our daughter would get lost but it was not the case at all. She was actually sad when summer came as she didn't want to say goodbye to her teacher. They did a great job giving her tools to work through...

I was so happy to pull my kids out of this school. They are much happier now.
