John Gill Elementary School

This school has excellent teachers that really get to know the students needs and work with each child in a caring enriching environment. The Principal Josh Griffith has been a great asset to this school! He has a great relationship with both the teachers and parents of this school and really understands the all around needs of every student.

We love John Gill. We have a vibrant community of dedicated parents teachers staff and students.

We love John Gill! Our daughter really loves her teacher.

I LOVE our school because we have AMAZING teachers a multi-age program (K-2 and 3-5) and most of all because we incorporate the Performing Arts beautifully.

The teachers are great. My two boys are in the K-2 program. My more mature 1st grader is challenged. My young kinder is nurtured.

Beautiful school with great teachers! My daughter loves her school.

Both daughters have loved the K-2 program. Another has graduated to the 3-5 program. We especially love the staff the dance program and the 'small-town' atmosphere even though we're in the suburbs.

The school is great because of the multi-age environment and the dedicated teaching staff.

because of it's great K-2 program and 3-5 program. Along with committed teachers and a wonderful principal. The hardwork and dedication of the teachers and principal together make this a wonderful school to go to. Especially the involved PTA.

I love the great sense of community in our school. I also love the K-2 Multiage Program and the ability for my child to learn at her own pace and be challenged daily.

I love John Gill because of the wonderful teachers. The multi-age program gives a great opportunity to the older kids to mentor the younger ones. My son loves going to school every day!

I love John Gill School because of the multi-age program where older children have an opportunity to mentor younger students. The performing arts program provides students with exposure to the arts as a complement to the classroom curriculum. The teachers are very experienced and care deeply for the students and the school.

because the school helps the kids gain confidence in themselves and allows them to explore different areas of scholarship with all the programs available to them at the school.

It is a dedicated to helping students do & be the best they possibly can

I love John Gill School because there are such dedicated teachers for these greatkids.

John Gill give parnents a full range of teaching styles an emphasis bases on a childs strengths or challenges. The individual teachers passion fills the staff with the energy and pride it takes to successfully teach in the challenging environment. Diversification and mixed grade classes build relatinships and community that will enhance our childrens' confidence freinships and network as they become young adults and beyond. Parent involvement will continue to be necessary if we care about supporting our children and teachers and wish to compete at a national and global level.

When students track with the same teacher for three years as they do at John Gill there is a chance to build a strong learning relationship that allows children to grow and teachers to teach to the individual child. This is only one of the things I love about this school. The teachers are passionate and have a long tenure at this school. I am sad that my child will be graduating this year but know that he is prepared for junior high because of his experiences at John Gill.

John Gill is the home to the Redwood City School District Deaf and Hard of Hearing Total Communication Program. The teachers and students see no difference between the Hearing students and the Deaf and Hard of Hearing students. The warm and welcoming environment is not only wonderful for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing it is wonderful for ALL students.

My nephew attends this school and is really thriving in the multi-age classroom. He loves his classmates teachers and activities. Thanks for the great environment you have provided for him. My niece will be starting kindergarden there in the fall as well and she is very excited about it!
