I have always had great communication with the school and the teachers. The doors are always open to eat lunch with our kids and volunteer opportunities are frequently offered through PTA and the parent involvement coordinator. However, some of the other kids can be mean and rude. Even some of the teachers are rude and just look the other way on the bullying. Mostly I have had good dealings with the school.

My kids will be entering 2nd and 4th grade this year. They have both been at Greer since Kindergarten. We have always had great communication with the school and the teachers.

Speaking plainly and to the point. This a great school I love that they teach Spanish as a second language there a few really nice teachers and students. However, the rest of the kids are rude, self important and mean the administration will talk to you like you are an uneducated piece of trash. If you want your child to respect or know how to treat another human being do not send them to this school. St. Simons elementary (where the rich kids go to school) are nicer

Greer is an amazing school. The IB program is great. But what really makes this school is the Amazing Teachers and Staff.

We moved to brunswick when my husband was stationed at FLETC and we decided to try CB Greer before going to a private school. I am SO glad we did!! My daughter attended greer during 4th grade and is now in the last term of 5th grade. The principal changed this year, but from what I can tell the transition has been smooth. I really like the IB program. The teachers, school staff and parent volunteers have all been great. My daughter was in private school in another state from 1-3rd grades, and I feel that the education and support she received here was equal to a private education, and in some areas has exceeded what is possible in a private school. She has enjoyed being part of the choir and being a crew member on the daily news broadcast Shark News . I have recommended this school to lots of people moving into this area, and will continue to do so. We felt welcomed by all of the staff from day one, and that really makes a difference.

My child is a kindergartener at Greer this year. I could not be more pleased with our experience. He is reading far beyond a kindergarten level and writing paragraphs! His teacher has been in constant communication with us and has given us many opportunities to be involved through the year. The school gained International Baccalaureate status this year, and I think it has been a lot more than a few spoonfed words. The students are encouraged to learn through 'inquiry'. I think Greer is a Great school, and I cannot wait to see how much my children learn over the next few years.

I feel like we are not encouraged to be involved. The principal plays favorites! It is like pulling teeth to ever get a pass to get into the school for vistation. You can not walk your kids to class and you can not go in to get your kids in the afternoon. If you ever want to ask the teacher questions about your childs performance you must write it in this little box in their agenda and wait for a written response. You have to schedule a conference to ever be able to talk about things face to face. The staff has poor communication with each other. The kids are not aloud to talk at breakfast. I tried to eat breakfast with my child and I asked him a question and was told by a teacher that talking was not allowed. We are not happy with this school. Transferring soon!!!
