The physical campus of the school is great, and the teachers are some of the most kindest and caring people I have ever met. The only downside, I feel, is that since the school is located in a small town, there are less academic and sport opportunities available.

Gladstone high school has been my school since freshmen year. The teacher are excellent. They all have tons of insight and are all very approachable. I have never had a personal issue with any of them. We have good sports programs and plenty of parent involvement in all the clubs and extracurriculars. We have a dual enrollment program funded by the state and plenty of trade programs. This school sets you up for success.

I enjoyed my time here, I made a lot of great memories and friends. The school has a friendly atmosphere and kids are typically very involved in sports and school activities. The security is getting updated, once they get the bond to pass. Our high school gym and class rooms are very nice. We are very connected into the community around, and work with our junior high and elementary school.
