I agree with the first review. Grant is a horrible horrific school & everyone should be fired. By the way my kids has had accidents & they don't even call us.

We have had a horrible experience at Grant. There is serious lack of communication with parents. Teachers are disconnected. You can feel a severe lack of culture and community here.

your child will succeed if you make it a priority to be a part of the process, not just drop them off and wonder what happens. these teachers and staff really care, and the community is great. but you have to be a part of it
