Current school admin has established and encouraged a very toxic environment in the school. Parents and prospective employees beware: it is impossible to provide an authentic caring, inclusive, and empathetic learning environment for the students of Griggs when there is constant gossiping, betrayal of trust, and juvenile behaviors towards teachers and other staff who are not part of the clique created by school admin and the ladies who hang out in the office. Teachers part of this clique are shown favoritism and friendship that crosses the line of professionalism. Other teachers are ousted and made to feel like they are not valued to the point that they feel forced to leave to escape the toxic work environment, or admin blatantly enforces extra and/or unfair expectations with the perceived intentions of making those teachers miserable enough that they will leave. Everything looks great from the outside looking in because admin is constantly cooking up the next show to publicize on social media or flaunt in front of district leadership, but their aspirations to be in the limelight and competitive nature to be the best puts unnecessary added stress on the teachers. Griggs is NOT a team, it is a performance. I don’t want to teach in that kind of negative environment, and I wouldn’t want my child to be a student in a school where the ultimate goal is more about admin making themselves look good instead of truly caring about the growth and success of my child. It’s a shame. Griggs used to be Great.

Highly recommended.safe. Advanced learning skills and very good stuff.

The school and community is very welcoming and engaging. Highly recommended.
