The Storyteller for gilbert schools
We are here to tell the story of the Gilbert Community School District.
Welcome to the Gilbert CSD Communications Department, where it’s our job to get you, our stakeholders, all of the information you need and plenty of information you may not even know about.
In lockstep with our building leaders, staff members and administrators, we highlight all of the great things happening across the school district. From the first day of school, to graduation, to the final day of school, we are always looking for stories to tell that shine a positive light on our students, staff members, and community.
The Communications Department provides multiple avenues for stakeholders to learn about the district. Important information is sent out through Infinite Campus, and the myriad stories and videos from the district can be found on numerous social media platforms — Facebook, Instagram, X, and YouTube — as well as right here on our website.

MEDIA INQUIRIES
Sharing what our students accomplish inside and outside of the classroom is a top priority for us, and sharing our successes to a larger audience is important as well.
In an effort to keep our students secure during a time of crisis, the Superintendent and Director of Community Engagement will represent Gilbert CSD to both internal and external audiences. We ask that media members use discretion in crisis coverage that involves our students or staff members.
If outside media entities — print and multimedia — would like to make contact with any of our students, staff members, or administrators, they are asked to contact our Communications Department.
