Grant Wood Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2008-01-30 “Grant Wood Elementary has a wonderful new playgrgound, an immense new gym, the school district's Safety Village, an authenic Iowa prairie, a lovely city park attached to the school grounds, a very active PTO, terrific teachers, a low student-teacher ratio and the most culturally diverse student population in the district.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2006-07-28 “I have two children at Grant Wood and am very happy with the quality of their education. The new gym and new playground will make their experience even better. Their teachers last year were both excellent.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 3 2005-12-12 “Poor leadership. Some of the staff don't seem to enjoy their jobs anymore, and this is evident in their attitude. Wonderful music and PE teacher.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-03-02 “Whenever my son and I enter the school, we are greeted warmly by everyone-faculty, staff, even students. It seems that there is always a happy student holding a door open for me as I enter and exit the school! I know that if I have a question or concern, it will be handled immediately. My son has several 'advocates' supporting him daily. I cannot tell you how comforting that is. I went to Grant Wood Elementary and get a kick out of seeing some of the same teachers still working their magic.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2003-11-30 “We have two children at Grant Wood and our experience has been wonderful. Wonderful communication from the teachers, and the quality of the teachers we have had is great! Mrs. Lawrence provides outstanding leadership as the principal, and really makes an effort to make the students feel good about themselves. The school also offers a good before and after school program.”
