Grant Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-09-10 “I have been extremely pleased with Grant in terms of parent involvement, enrichment activities, and academic progress. I am concerned about math and science, but this is a district curriculum problem, rather than school specific. We have a new principal this year.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-09-10 “My children have received a top notch education so far and are getting plenty of enrichment activities. I thoroughly enjoy this school.” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 5 2005-09-10 “I loved Grant when I went there.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-06-17 “This is a FANTASTIC school! It has a real sense of community among the teachers, staff, parents and students. Since it is a school for the performing arts, the students are encouraged to take part in many different electives ranging from jewelry making and ballet to baseball and guitar. I would reccomend this school to anyone!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2005-05-31 “Grant is a fantastic school, offering a wide assortment of programs for children encouraging learning through the arts. Parent involvement is high. One concern we have is the math program, which is used throughout the Tacoma school district. We would like to see more math homework and science homework.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-05-30 “We have been at Grant for three years. One child will move to 3rd grade next year and the other to 1st. Our experience has been exceptional and we love our school. Our principal is gifted at working with children from all types of backgrounds. Her leadership and guidence creates a family atmosphere where learning is fun and all are welcome. The teachers truly care about the children. Each one that I have interacted with is truly committed to the school as a community. This is a magnet school with an emphasis on the expressive arts. The school encourages high parent involvement. If you and your child want to be part of a caring, active, educational community and get exposure to the expressive arts, this is your school.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2005-04-17 “Achedemics: My son thrived at Grant. Their ability to somewhat cator to students needs and learning methods was great. He came out an excellent reader (testing well above his age) and received an award for his 4th grade WASL testing. Grant is focused on art and music, much moreso than sports. If your child enjoys art and music, Grant is definitely the place for them to go. The PTA program at Grant is not the best. The PTA push for membership in the beginning, but then do not communicate much once you have joined.”
