7/26/2024
Gaston Day School is an amazing K-12 school along with preschool and Pre-K program. We have been a family at this school for the last 9 years and would not consider going anywhere else. Kids get one on one attention from teachers. Welcoming atmosphere and parents are encouraged to participate in school events and activities. Their sports teams are top notch. My kids just love going to school here.
3/1/2024
The buildings and campus are lovely, although I wish they supported the theater and art program more. The whole course of high school is really heavy on preparing you for college so I would definitely recommend it.
2/17/2023
The education and communication between students as well as between teachers and students is amazing, but the follow through is not always there, and they occasionally seem far too interested in saving money rather than spending some so the students don't have to foot the bill after already paying for tuition.

He is now in the upper school, and is very happy and comfortable there. No school is perfect, but GDS is night/...

Both of our sons started attending Gaston Day in middle school. The academic rigor, 1 on 1 attention with teachers, lifelong friendships, and preparation for college went above and beyond our expectations! As a college freshman, our oldest son told us that GDS more than prepared him for academic suc...

After a few years in public schools, my high IQ, dyslexic child began to hate school. There were only two schools recommended by the psychologist in the Charlotte area: Fletcher and Gaston Day. His dyslexic accommodations were never an issue at GDS. Additionally, the teachers not supported him, they...
