Gridley Middle School

Posted October 25, 2009

As legal guardians (and grandparents)to a Gridley Middle school exceptional education student, we are pleased to report that Gridley Middle School has (thus far)proven to be like a shimmering sun-lit beacon (a safe haven if you will) in the middle of an usually vast, harsh,and hard-to-navigate prickly desert! The principal is a shinning jewel...a rare find...brightly reflecting a true love of teaching and a sincere respect toward all of the students (and families) she serves. We greatly appreciate the accessability of this principal and the mutual dedication of Gridley staff to provide the best education possible in a user-friendly atmosphere that sets the community service bar high and serves Tucson so well. We highly recommend Gridley Middle School to all those seeking a quality education, in a highly achieving school and user-friendly enviornment!

Gridley is an incredible school because they take the time to acknowledge children who work hard in behavior and achieve high standards in their academics. At the end of every quarter children with no referrals get to attend an award party. At the end of a child's schooling at Gridley children who have maintained an A average GPA get to go out on a day of a limo ride to various places including lunch. Each child gets a bag full of coupons for free items to be redeemed at businesses within the area of Gridley. Thanks to the wonderful PTA who spends hours getting businesses to donate these coupons. Way to go Gridley! Show these children that hard work pays off!

We have had three children attend Gridley. The principal, staff and teachers are wonderful and caring. Our oldest daughter went on to University High School and did well. Our son required special attention and the teachers and counselors worked closely with us and him to help him succeed. They put together an IEP specifically for him to meet his situation. He is now doing very well in high school. Our youngest daughter is doing very well at Gridley now. She is in orchestra and her teacher continues to encourage and inspire her as she learns to master the viola.

Gridley is a wonderful middle school with caring and attentive teachers who are doing the very best with the children under the terrible conditions that are troubling our public school system.
