I went to a college prep school before going to James N Gamble Montessori high school so going from college prep to montessori was a big change for me but I have to say m overall it was a good change for me. The teachers are great and care about their students a lot. Also being apart of a community that helps build each other up is amazing.
Gamble is a very wonderful place to send your kids. They are all about community, and giving back. There are a lot of opportunities given at Gamble. The teachers are very supportive and gets along with each and every student they come into contact with. They look out for the students and try their best to be an opening ear for the students.
Gamble is a Montessori school so I was always experiencing something. We were out and learning hands on all middle school. My favorite was 8th grade year when we took our Yearly eighth grade Pigeon key Florida trip. We spent 8 days in pigeon key Florida learning about marine biology and studying the ocean and the environment. I made so many connections and memories that I will hold on to dearly as I get older, but I also grew and learned so much that will forever stay with me. All through out middle school I had many field experiences where we were out learning outside the classroom and getting involved with the community. Another great thing about gamble is that we were required community service hours. Which I loved because I love to give back to my community. I just wish that I had that same experience in high school. Field experiences were much less in high school and I just wish I would have had the opportunity to do more.
It’s really a good school. I came from a traditional school to a Montessori and it’s really a huge difference. It’s like we’re all a huge family no matter if there your teachers or not they still care.
The things that I like about James n gamble Montessori is that it’s very diverse. I met students from all over from the Bahamas to Jamaica. I also like that we have a relaxing environment to learn in . James N Gamble have teachers willing to help you succeed.
I've enjoyed my time at Gamble, and have academically excelled there. The teachers have been extremely kind and understanding, but I do have a few problems with it. If you aren't leftwing on the political spectrum, your opinion will often be invalidated because the majority of the school is liberal. It can be frustrating to feel unheard, especially when you know from experience that if you speak up another student will attack you for not agreeing. Besides that, it is fairly enjoyable! The assignments aren't that difficult, and if you complete your work on time, you will have a good chance of passing with at least a C. The teachers are also willing to work with students and their specific educational needs.
I loved that it was a Montessori school. It was based off of coming together as a community. I felt like I was a part of a big family! They teach very well also and we always do group activities. It was a great experience!
I do not feel ready for college. There is nothing to do here. I also feel like the administration is shady.
I liked that it was Montessori
the education was awful though, no learning, just busywork, no preparation for life or college, just busywork.

the work isn't a lot and the teachers do a very good job at explaining
they have a few great clubs
its a great school to attend
There's a lot of work and sometimes it feels that the teachers forget that students have other classes.
I like learning and the teachers but I do not like most of the students except a good handful of them.
Our school doesn't tolerate bullying at all. But our security policies are not strict enough. Although I feel safe at my school, anyone could still bring anything in there.
Our extra curricular activities basically has a field for anyone who wants to get involved! Our most famous/ popular club currently is video game club. I'm active in our ski club where we go skiing every Monday in January to kick off the winter the right way. There's also a robotics club, film analytics club, magic club, art club, etc. Clubs for everything!
I go to a Montessori High School. We are a very active and hands on learning type of school. We get involved in different communities around the city and everyone in each classroom seems to work together with no problem in a enjoyable manner. I've loved it ever since I started here in 7th grade. I strongly recommend students enrolling at Montessori schools. They're awesome!
