Marie C. Graham Elementary School

My children transferred to Graham 2 years back and the school was very welcoming. I believe that Graham has the children's best interest in mind and try to do the best they can. Although I am not happy with my children's school I do not feel it is the administration or the teachers. I am questioning if it is the parents and the students. I believe that the staff has to many disipline issues to deal with and obnoxious parents! If we lived in a nicer neighborhood or could afford private schools then that would be my choice. But as far as public schools go Graham Elementary is a fine school and the staff is great :-)

My daughter transfered here from Tenniswood Elementary because they did not have available seats and we love it. This is a great school with friendly teachers and a great principal. This summer they are going to renovate the school and I think it will be excellent. My child brings home everyday a book to read and there is a lot of parent involvement on different events. Mrs. Weiss is wonderful teacher, too. My child will attend second grade on this school and not on her home school. Thank you all teachers of Marie C Graham Elementary school doing a good job with kids.

Teachers are wonderful, most go out of their way to give the students a well round education. The parent club is outstanding.

The individual care that is shown by the teachers is second to none!! The Parent Teacher Club is always looking for different ways to improve the student experience at Graham.

Graham does not make new families feel welcome and comfortable!

We also attended Prevail last year and were very disappointed. My son(1st grade) and daughter (4th grade) are both doing very well at Graham. The teachers make the difference. Mrs Buxton and Mrs Christman are wonderful and both go the extra mile to help our children learn. Both my children are also very excited about the renovated gym that will open in a week or two.

This is the first year for my daughter at Marie Graham. We came from an academy school, Prevail, and we were really dissappointed by them. I have to say it has been a wonderf ul school. We have not had too many issues with the school, that has not been taken care of immediately. Mrs Serruys is a wonderful teacher. Mrs. Sally is the best principal. And the school has something the academy did not. They brought learning with fun. And my daughter seems to do just as well, and better than she did in the Academy. She loves going to school and that is what matters. Keep up the good work!

I was very dissapointed in the education that my son recieved at this school. That is the reason I moved him to a academy. Now I am having to hire tutors, do one to two hrs of homework study each nite to catch him up to where he needs to be. Very dissapointed.
