I have 3 babies there. I love the principal and her staff! I am secure in knowing when dropping them off at school that they are in good hands!

Guilford Elem is the best school that I've come across in my research. New to NC schools, I was apprehensive about what the school would provide but when I moved and researched other options, Guilford always came out above the rest in test scores. The teachers, staff, and principal are all genuine and care about teachers, training, and nurturing the children. Guilford Elementary is the best in Guilford County Schools!

Guilford Elementary is an excellent school if your child is a struggling learner, and an excellent place for a diverse learning population; however, I feel the school lacks enrichment for bright, above average children. If your child performs above grade level, there is very little effort placed on continutining that trend. Individual teachers vary, of course, but I am dissappointed in the lack of growth opportunities for studnets who do not need repeated instruction of a skill. That said, the school has an excellent staff that does a wonderful job bringing ill-prepared students up to grade level.
