This school has been the best change for me and my family! Jones Gordon school has helped me grow enormous amounts and be the best person I can be. I have made friends that will last me a lifetime and I know they will always be there with me through the happy times and the sad times. The principal Dana Herzber has helped me grow so much in my creativity and truly is one of the kindest people you will ever meet. Dana is so involved with her students that you can't tell she truly cares. Dana has encouraged me to follow my dreams and has a wonderful team that spreads the same message. The staff at JGS is one of the many reasons I love to go to school! The teachers are truly the definition of a team! I can honestly tell you that Jones Gordon is my home away from home. JGS is the best school experience you can give your child. JGS Is the best thing that has happened to me! This school truly embodies the culture of kindness!

Our son attended here and was bullied relentlessly. We pulled him for safety concerns before the year was even up and found a great school in the area that was a good fit. The administration at JGS was pretty much useless at preventing bullying and put blame on victims when it did occur. Strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

This school has changed my children's lives. They love the school, the staff, and the other students. The academic excellence and highly skilled teachers are helping my children be successful and I know my son will be more than ready for college.

They rejected my child because he was too smart for their curriculum. They cater to children with LD issues and slower kids.

Our son has been a student at JGS for 4 years now and the change has been absolutely remarkable. While there is no "perfect" school, I have to say, this is pretty darn close. The staff is beyond caring and so intuitive, the teachers are beyond amazing and the best part is the kids are KIND. Children are children and when they come upon a rough patch, ours included, everyone at JGS has been there to help get things back on track, with kindness, complete professionalism, and always with the intent to help and advance the child. You couldn't find a better and more uniquely qualified school in the Valley.

We moved our daughter to Jones-Gordon 2 years ago. My daughter is thriving at school. The staff is remarkable in working with each child individually and seeing the whole child. We have seen such a change at home as well. It's hard to verbalize all the amazing things this school is. If your child needs more, this is an amazing school.

I remember the day we first met in Dana's office 6 years ago. Our son had been rejected from public school due to his behavior arising from extreme anxiety. As his parents, we had a feeling of extreme desperation. In that first meeting, she welcomed him to her school and conveyed her belief in his intelligence. Since then, she never stopped believing in him.Over the last 6 years at Jones Gordon School, our son has not only completed his high school curriculum, but has developed skills needed to succeed in any university and in his life. It is hard to believe that the boy who walked out of each class several times due to anxiety, now successfully attends junior college. He scored 1590 in his SAT class, scored perfect 800 in both math and history subject SAT tests, and has been chosen as a semifinalist for The National Merit Scholarship.Our son's success is because of The Jones Gordon School. This school and all the wonderful teachers have made our son who he is. We are indebted to them forever.

My son, a recent Jones Gordon School graduate, had a fantastic experience here! His teachers made learning enjoyable and relevant, and because the class sizes are small, he was able to receive one-on-one help and mentoring. Traditional high school simply did not work for my son because of social anxiety, and he had switched to online studies before attending JGS. However, because of the high quality academic program and the support he received from the teachers and his on-site counselor at JGS, he was sorry to see high school end and is going on to college. That says it all.

Completed questionnaire and submitted IEP. Received denial via email same day without even meeting my daughter. This school doesn't feel like it's all about the child.

The best, most caring enviroment for kids of all ages, and all abilities. Dana Herzberg leads a fantastic team to provide a nurturing place to ignite a passion for learning. Other schools may claim to provide these services but On Track actually delivers. Simply put, On Track Academy is the BEST school in Arizona for kids with special needs.
