I had Twins in 5th grade, the 1st year the school was open. They have now 'graduated' and I'll miss seeing the staff on a regular basis. Each child is encouraged to do their personal best. The teachers are highly skilled and work hard to bring out the best in each child. The principal is kind and puts the Kids first. She is a great example of a leader and easy to approach.

My child is a student at Grand Ridge. The school is new but lacks strong administrative leadership. Teachers and staff don t have warm report with each other or the parents. The facilities are nice with; student computers, LDC projectors and electronic chalkboards in every classroom; a computer lab and excellent library are also available. These resources go mostly unused and on top of that there is no budget for Music and Art. The curriculum is based on skill level and segregates students based on performance. The math curriculum is based on word problems and traditional math is not taught. This seemed to be driven by the WASL. Covered areas are not provided for the younger children as they wait in the rain for the first bell to ring.
