I like that it is a small school, where everyone knows everyone and that there isn't 30 people per class.

Gaston has an amazing community, and that doesn't stop at the teachers. I personally think that we have some of the most caring and generous teachers around. A lot of students aren't lucky enough to have teachers that go above and beyond for them, but we definitely do. Struggling students receive help, and the teachers want to help and they are always there when help is needed.
