My kids love their school. The new principal is fantastic.

Our family moved to the area about 5 years ago. I am very happy with the education my children are getting at Maple Grove. The teachers are wonderful. They are very compassionate and dedicated.

I am the parent of two children at Maple Grove. This is an exceptional school. The school is amazingly well-funded. The principal knows each child and personally places him/her in the best class to meet their abilities. I also have a child that struggles in school, but I have been met with an abundance of help from the the school staff.

I have two children who attend this elementary. My third-grader struggles in school. Everytime we request help we are met by excuses like 'we don't have the funding to help your child' or 'she is not far enough behind to qualify for help'. This entire school system is driven by ISTEP scores not by the skills the children actually acquire. Unfortunately, their school board spends excessive amounts of money on athletics (i.e. outdoor locker facility). I am a Center Grove Alumnus and I am very disappointed in the education my child is receiving. This entire school system has their priorities out of order. How many professional athletes has CGSC produced? They need to concentrate on the quality of education these students receive. More parents need to be involved by attending school board meetings.
