As someone who also attended grade school in Las Vegas, this is easily one of the best institutions in Nevada. The teachers, administrators, and school culture are extremely kind, professional, and knowledgable of the Montessori way. When my daughter was struggling, there was an entire team ready and available to create an academic support plan to meet her where she needed to be met. It worked! Thanks to the schools diligence, communication, and teamwork, she was able to show immense improvement in very little time. Ms. Dana, Ms. Rosie, Ms. Adrian, and Ms. Marion ... I mean I could just go on about the community here, parents included! We feel so safe dropping her off in the hands of such incredible people. Highly recommend!

Do your homework for schooling. This school is not a good school. I have not experienced a good…read moreteacher in the last 3 years and the principal didn't bother to help either! The staff play the favorite game and all the teachers have their own way of doing things. You need to donate and volunteer just for the staff to be NICE! I have no problem donating but it's a manipulative way how they run Vanderburg. Also, if you have a problem the school asks you to take it to the teacher when you do you can expect to experience what I experienced from the teacher turning into a BULLY! The teacher became defensive and started treating my child negatively!! Plus, turning on me! And when I sent an email to the principal w/concerns the principal printed it out, showed the teacher and they turned against me and made me feel like I was the problem not them! They are BULLIES!! They do not like parents speaking up or addressing their concerns or trying to advocate for your child. At the end of they year, you fill out a request for a teacher and the school NEVER honors your request! I know they sit around and discuss who goes where because I had another teacher inform me of this process. I highly suggest to do your homework w/schooling for your children because Vanderburg is definitely not the best or even decent!! ~GOOD LUCK

When I tell you that this is the most AMAZING school - I'm not exaggerating…read more I am so grateful we found GVLS. My son has grown leaps and bounds and it truly is so clear how much the teachers are called to their work. I'm so grateful for their perseverance and structure - he is going to thrive in school because of what he has learned, both socially and academically. The administrative staff are delightful & truly go out of their way to care for both the students AND their families. And I cannot leave my review without specifically calling our Mrs. Nana....

In addition, there are ongoing concerns about leadership and school administration.
