With Gilbert High School being a small town school, it can come with many pros and cons. Over the last two years that I have attended this school, I have seen many pros. Gilbert is the place to be; The staff is wonderful, the people are friendly, and most importantly, the education offered is unmatched.

The teachers are the best part of the expirance. The worst is the food. It's really hit or miss with the food.

My overall experience has been very positive. The faculty really care about their students. Th only thing I wish was a little bit better was the amount of college level classes offered.

Was there for a wrestling qualifier. me and my teammate was berated by some girl about “not touching their equipment” and “not calling their school broke” and also “not making fun about the fact our HS football team won state and theirs didn’t”. 0/10 would not recommend.

This is an amazing school!!!! 100 times better than Lexington High School. From the administration to the teacher/coaches and students. The teachers actually still care about each student. The students are so well mannered and not judgmental. Moving our children here even though we live in Lexington...
