We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

They have just been a blessing. They love our kids and have been super supportive in every way. Grant children stand out in high school, in a very positive way :)

Well it seems like the only problem our school is the teaching isn't that efficent because most students usually don't understand but don't have opportunity to actually ask because they feel intimidated. like many teachers and most of them dont actually teach you or have you understand what's the lesson is. The reason why some of the teachers are there is because there tenured but that's a different subject. although there are many teachers who I believe really good at what they teach. There's actually a lil bit more good teachers than the others.

Our school is always there to a student who needs it ranging from the teachers to the principles. When it comes to Bullying, dress code, attendance, and any controversial policies they are very strict about. If one is broken there is usually a reasonable punishment given.

Love the school. This is our third school in the Redding area, because we have moved. We will not leave the Redding area. While the other schools were fine, Grant is an exceptional environment. The academics still include the fun stuff... science experiments, theme days, field trips and projects. Al...
