Honestly, while my child has attended this school there was only one teacher that had years of experience and it showed with my child’s ability to learn.

Posted by a parent on 8/14/2012This school year was our daughters' first year at Garrett. My husband and I have to say that this year we have truly enjoyed the experience at Garrett. My daughters have learned so much this year, and my youngest daughter just blossomed. My girls made some new friends, and that was important to me.

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI believe this needs some updating! This is one of the best schools I’ve been too in Montgomery. The teachers care about their children learning. They show their support when there are big tests coming up and they want the children to know that they believe in them. A lot happens that most parents don’t see, with regard to how the teachers love the children and I respect that so much!Other Review8mo ago - Halcyon Elementary School
