The mission of Gardendale Separate Day School is to promote commendable conduct which leads to academic and personal success.

Gardendale Separate Day School (GSDS) inspires accountability without excuses. We strive to provide an atmosphere of love, respect and acceptance, along with maintaining the feeling of a public school.

Students at GSDS receive individualized education and counseling in a highly structured environment, while developing an appreciation for learning and consistency. Students learn and apply coping skills to solve everyday, real world problems. We offer strategic interventions to help each student achieve their “personal best” academically, socially, and behaviorally.

Our focus is to foster a positive relationship between parent, school and student with emphasis on family values in the spirit of altruism.
