Both of our children graduated from Granby HS in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program and were accepted to their first choice college. The program is rigorous but the students are supported with caring and knowledgeable teachers. Their sports programs are fantastic and the kids get “play time”, unlike other large schools. The principal communicates weekly with all families and he is present at events outside of school hours. As an urban school, Granby matches the real world and taught our kids the importance of treating others with respect and not taking what you have for granted.

Many, many years ago, I taught kindergarten at Lindenwood. It was on of my very best teaching experiences! There was great parent evolvement there! Great community school! Yes, there were some behavior issues. You’ll find that anywhere. However, I had incarcerated parents, yet they absolutely adored their child! I had exhausted students because their new sibling slept in the same room. Oh, there were many more! However, we just rolled with it all, trying to meet the needs of every student on every level! The students wanted to learn! Over all students were well behaved. I’d go back in a heartbeat if I still lived there!

This school is the worst to Teach!! The disrespectful , rude and disgusting behavior of students makes teaching hard. Bullying and fighting is daily event. They shout at teachers and laughing about it.
