This School made me do homework every day and it wouldn’t leave me alone on Friday which is why I pulled out. I didn't belong there.

Atrocious school for bullying and the SRO is only 1 officer. The school does NOTHING to curtail the BeBes kids and when parents go to the office to try to get a resolution there’s zero follow through from the school! Kids with COVID Are still showing up exposing others, as are teachers. Some of the teachers are there to actually teach, but the majority are not effective and if a student struggles with a particular way learn (kinetic, visual, audio, etc) they’re just SOL if it’s not the teaching style of their teachers! This is absurd and detrimental to the students! The test scores are horrid and a true reflection of the inability of staff to properly convey the information, not the students abilities or intelligence. The school is seriously lacking in providing a SAFE and healthy learning environment and it’s a shame because Griffin USED to be a great school. Extremely disappointed

I love Griffin. I ask of any one else who has had a problem or wants to leave a negative review... how invested are you in the school. Have you joined PTO? Joined SAC? Volunteered? The more the kids see your service efforts, I believe they're less likely to act up. The teachers will know you and you will have a mutual respect feel comfortable contacting them as I have whether it's over the weekend or a break (Thanks Mr. Gautney) to ask about homework assignments. I've had a great experience with my kids going there.
