My children are getting such a well rounded education both academically and socially. It is a place where they support a community of learning and responsibility to add to your learning environment. There has been no bullying - it is not passed over when children act out, there is really problem solving and growth support. It is not a perfect place but strives to make the most of every learning opportunity and promote a growth mindset. I now have a 5th grader and 3rd grader and I couldn't be more pleased. The teachers are caring but not coddling - they are supporting each child to reach their full potential through personal growth. Beth Scott is an admirable leader as the principal and the teachers are very motivated and talented.

We are so very fortunate to have our children attend Glenridge Elementary. The teachers are passionate educators and the cultural diversity creates a warm and welcoming mutlinational enviroment.

If I could give Glenridge less than 1 star I would, we left because the social situation there (bullying) was out of control. Handled poorly by both teachers and principle. Actually using the word handled is unfair since no one really did anything about it. it wasn't until we left that I found that not only was Glenridge a social nightmare for children unable to fit the mold but I found that the academics aren't really what they're cracked up to be. We moved out of state and in our new school found that Glenridge hadn't really created a particularly strong academic foundation. It is my belief that Glenridge is riding on the coat tails of an old reputation.
