Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on October 09, 2009
Rating: (5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
My grandson is in kindergarten, and he is a needy child due to his high level of pre-learning and his subsequent boredom and behavior problems. Grant goes out of their way to deal with any child, no matter what their needs. The principal and assistant know all the kids, as do the counselors and extra area teachers. It's a close knit school. They have a wonderful volunteer network, including playground monitors during, and before and after school. The grounds are fenced. And the school is rated high in test scoring. What more can I say?
