Academically this is a great school. As far as the staff goes not all of the staff are good. Alot of them are very sweet and caring. The ones that dont care about the student can really damage the students self esteem!

Our children were blessed with wonderful, caring teachers who took the time to make certain their needs were met.

Thank you to all at Glenn Harmon. I don't think we could have had a more positive experinece anywhere else! Read less

I am totally shocked at what some parents have said about Glenn Harmon. It is a great school. I was a former teacher there and I know that every teacher did their best to educate the students. The principal and vice principal work hard to provide a safe and secure environment for students and faculty.

I have not been pleased with the involvement with faculty and students. I have seen too many times the students were torn down for something that should not have been dealt that way.
