Gretna no.2 academy of advanced studies is absolutely amazing! This is my sons first school year he is a pre-k student, since being at gretna no. 2 academy he has learned to read, his writing skill are excellent, he can count by two's, five's, and ten's, he has an amazing bond with his 2 wonderful teachers Michelle and Margret, and he has blossomed into a social butterfly! GO GATORS!!!!!!!
I was very disappointed with this school. It did not live up to the reputation it has. I think people like this school because some affluent families send their children there. The principal is extremely unprofessional.
Gretna #2 Academy is a God sent to my child and our whloe family. We have enjoyed the 2 years that we have been with Gretna. They offer so much exposure that we may not be able to introduce our kids to due to being working parents. Thank you to the entire staff!!!
I think the review posted on July 5,2007 is wrong. This school changed my daughter's grades to 100% A. If you want your child to suceed you should encourgage him every day so he could feel nurished and loved and tell him school is great.
Gretna #2 Academy for Advanced Studies is a fantastic shcool that really cares about its students. The kids learn how to study and how to think. These skills will benefit them the rest of their lives.
I is like one big family. My child loves going to school eveyday.
It is everything a school should be. And, being that it is a public school, it proves that public schools can succeed given good leadership.
My children have had some truly remarkable teachers - caring, challenging and innovative!
Gretna No. 2 Academy has been an eye opening experience for our family. It is a public school and they care. From the administration, teachers and students- we are so happy to be involved in this wonderful elementary public school
My son has been at this school since it opened. He loves it and so do we. I've seen only two negative reviews. Mrs. Wilty and teachers go out of their way to commnicate with students and parents if there is a problem. I can say this from my dealings with any problems we have had. SCHOOL GETS AN A+
