Kids are very happy at Potter Gray. Academics are excellent, leadership has great values and is compassionate. There are some of the best teachers in the city here. Could use a little more diversity.

My children came to Potter Gray and were immediately welcomed with open arms. They were challenged to reach their full academic potential, for which they have excelled beyond my expectations. The teachers are dedicated and go way above and beyond the call of duty to help each child. It is such a positive happy school where parents are welcome to participate as much as they can. Their administration is truly remarkable at leadership, encouragement and having fun while striving to have each child do their very best. I've loved having Potter Gray be a part of my children's happy memories and a solid foundation in achievement, not only in academics, but also many other extra programs such as BRIDGES, music and art.

We were new to the area and didn't know anything about the schools before my daughter started Kindergarten. It has been an amazing school year! The leadership of the principal is outstanding and the teachers are very eager to maintain a fun learning environment while using an excellent curriculum! I have worked with many schools over the past 12 years and this is by far the best I have seen!

Best school ever. My family has experienced many schools as students, parents, and educators in several states. This school is the best we've ever been involved with and we love the expectations for academics and behavior that is required of our own children as well as everyone else. Teachers, students, parents, and the administration are the absolute best!

As a parent of two children who attend this school, I couldn't agree more with the glowing parental commentary. I'm very surprised that the Principal leadership at this point, reflects only 4 out of 5 stars. I believe this area is probably the strongest of all - next to parental involvement. 5 stars all the way around from this very impressed and grateful parent.
