I have 3 children who have been at Griffin since K-7 (thus far). This school has the highest level of education with a very home town feeling. We are a very close knit community. The teachers, staff, bus drivers and parents all feel very much like family. I have faith and trust in this K-8 school and feel my children have been truly blessed by being a part of the Griffin school system.

I went to griffin from 4-8th grade and had an AMAZING experience there. Almost all the teachers love what they do. Discipline or safety was never a problem. Parent involvement is really high. The small environment is cool because all the administrators know your name. Great gifted programs. Really good school lunches. And, I'm pretty sure their library is both newer and twice as big as my high school library.

Griffin School is wonderful. I have a first and eighth grader who attend school and I can not say enough great things about their teachers and programs. Thank you Griffin for adding such a positive role in my children's lives. I would recommend Griffin to any family.

This school has difficulty following through with the most basic special ed. programs. I feel it is also and unsafe playground situation, as even the victims of bullies get punished. Its very sad when a small girl gets punished for being slapped across the face. The principal cannot seem to get control of the bully situation at this school.

I only wish that you could have spanish available, not only after school. But in class also. Its hard for us to pick up our son from kindergarten and then wait 2 hrs. Then take him back again. Wait 2 hrs then pick him up again.
