This is my second child in Gribbin. I can only say the best. I feel they are safe and that there is a lot of accountability there, contrary to private schools. The teachers are excellent and both teachers and principal are very responsive. Any concern was address promtly and professionally. Incredible nurse.

I have one child in Gribbin now and 2 that have already gone thru. They all had fantastic teachers and excelled academically. Plenty of music and art as for parent involvement, some are more involved than others. Overall excellent.

It is a fairly good academic program. The music, art, sports and other extra curricular activities are fairly rated. The parents involvement can be rated as fair.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

Oops! We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Public and charter school test scores for most states come from the state Department of Education. The most common reasons we might not have this data are either that not enough students took the test or that the school was recently opened, and its scores have not yet been reported.
