Pros

Schedule and breaks are great

Cons

This review pertains to the Nutrition Services. Management at the top is horrible, with constantly changing standards and rules. They travel from school to school in groups to just stand around. The cliques are part of the culture, with gossip galore. Schools and employees and pitted against each other. The employees are either amazing or horrible. No in between. Huge amounts of employees openly brag about a lack of formal education, with blatant racism and classism on full display. The food is absolute garbage. The "dietitian" should be ashamed of themself for poisoning our children with such ultra-processed garbage. Sanitation is a huge issue among certain employees, with unsafe food handling practices. The grift on the tax payer's dime should be illegal. Money is wasted at an alarming rate in terms of labor, food, and equipment. Perfectly good facilities have been replaced due to a "use it or lose it" policy so funding can be maintained. There are minimal redeeming qualities in the Nutrition Services department, and the things I've mentioned are just the tip of the iceberg.

Pros

I absolutely loved my school, but I had to leave because I just wasn't paid enough with the rising cost of living in Gilbert. They did get a raise after I left, but it still wasn't enough. I have never had a school culture as good as FFE. The parents, students, and principal (has since left), were all amazing to work with.

Cons

GPS is a very large district. I didn't feel valued by the district. I felt VERY valued by my school though. I went to a much smaller school district, and feel more seen.
