This school does an awesome job of making it feel like a real family. My child loves school! I always love to ask how was his day and he always responds, "Super-Duper Awesome!". This has been a much different year, but the principals and teachers have done a great job with communicating with parents and getting our feedback.

Greenbriar Elementary is the school to start your Pre K children. The school goes through 5th grade. Greenbriar has great administrators ,teachers, and staff who are amazing and caring with the kids. My children and grandkids have all gone here. The school has a B rating now and they are doing a great job growing our kids.

This school has been awesome for my child. The staff really does care about the kids in more ways than learning. They use Class Dojo to communicate with the parents as well as make personal calls and also Facebook. They have had great involvement with making sure virtual stays involved with school events such as school pictures, pep-rally's, and the reading parade. This school won the MyON reading challenge for most books read in the ENTIRE district! Parents these days want to be hand fed for every little thing because they use the school system as a daycare. Truth is if you really did your part as a parent, you can tell what, when, and how your kids are learning! This school is great!

They let my child walk off campus after school, and no one could find her. Fortunately she was waiting on the steps of our home. They have absolutely NO organization with picking up students.

Horrible school!!! I moved my child from this school and it was the best decision I made as a parent. My son went from failing to making 80's and 90's at his new school. The teachers down talked my son and told him wasn't going to pass.

Greenbriar Elementary has severe traffice problems. My grandkids go there and boy has this school changed from when my boys went there in the eighties. The principal is not interested in what you have to say. We will be getting my grandkids out of that school , I feel sorry for the teachers

My child was very behind when we finally decided to switch schools At the new school I finally realized what a good decision me and my husband had made My child has soared beyond anything I could have ever hoped for. It has taken almost a full school year of extra reading classes and tutoring to help undo what Greenbriar had let happen. Every single time I questioned why my child seemed behind it was swept under the rug, Even doing tons at home never seemed to catch up.Now I know it's because the standards for all the students are not high I know what they mean now when people say they were just passing a child along Now my child's average is awesome I couldn't be more pleased!! I also asked at Greenbriar for my child to be tested for dyslexia and was told that takes years and then my child would be placed in a special class away from everyone. it was very clear they didn't want to have anything to do with it Now my child is already been tested and approved for an overlay and is in extra reading classed and they have told me by the end of the year they hope to know if there is a problem. I truly feel they care for my child and do everything they can to help like a school SHOULD DO
