My son has attended GMV for four years now and we would not send him ANYWHERE ELSE...if only every school had the leadership skills of Ms. Hollis!

My daughter went to this school from K and just got promated from 5th. I love this school and hate that my daughter finished her last year there. The teachers are great and Mrs Hollis was great. Thank GMV for some wonderful years.

Ganns is a FABULOUS school. I can't emphasize it enough. My kids have been going there since Kindergarten and LOVE it. I have one child in 5th and one in 3rd. The Faculty is awesome. They love the kids and invest in them. I wouldn't send my kids anywhere else.

I do not like anything about this school , especially the Kindergarten teacher my son has. It's sad to think teachers can treat little 5 yr olds the way they do. I have had problems with the teacher from day one. If you have a choice take my advice and don't send your child there. I was told this was a good school well, I'm there all the time and I see and hear a lot, and it's not good at all. I'm taking my son out and homeschooling , now I see why so many parents are homeschooling their children. I think if more parents ask questions and found out how their child is being treated they would feel the same way.
