We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Gavilan Peak was a wonderful school for me at the time. My last year at this school was 2022-2023. I took mandarin immersion which gave me great opportunities in the future. Throughout my entire time here, I loved my teachers and classes.
