The school is amazing! I have nothing bad to day. The staff is very caring, my children are getting a great education. They love going to school.

I miss Griebling sooooo much! I just graduated this school from Miss Lowe's (soon to be a Mrs.) class. I cried hysterically on the bus ride home as did all my friends. The AMAZING staff is so spectacular ! They are the reason why I'm nominated for project plus (gifted and talented). I wrote my first sentence there, learned how to spell my last name, that was my childhood. they taught us EVERYTHING! i grew up there. i will sure miss griebling dearly, its like i left my childhood behind me. anyone, anyone at all, would love griebling, as does everyone i knew there. GOODBYE GRIEBLING!

I really appreciate the love and care that the teachers from Griebling offers to our children. They value most our children's education and safety. Never heard of a bully or trouble. Even though property taxes are high here in Howell, It's worth every penny! My son loves his school that he never want to be absent. Keep up the good work! You deserve more than 5 stars!

I think the Griebling school has an excellent academic program for young children. The staff is very involved and concerned about each child. If my child is sick and I forget to call, I recieve a phone call asking where my child is. The location is safe and away from traffic. Even the YMCA offers an aftercare program on campus until 6 p.m. which is so helpful for me as a working parent. I give this school 5 stars!

I have only wonderful things to say about this school. This is my daughter's third year there and I have another daughter starting Kindergarten in the fall of 2004, and I couldn't be happier. The principal, faculty and everyone at this school is above and beyond wonderful. My daughter's experiences there will never be forgotten by either of us, and she is learning so much! The curriculum is top notch, student and parent participation is awesome and I love how they reward the children for academic acheivements. I just wish there was air conditioning....
