Westminster Academy

My daughter went to Grady for kindergarten and first grade. When she was in the after school program at Grady, hosted by the YMCA, she was touched brazenly and inappropriately touched under her clothing by another student in the program. My daughter said she yelled out when it happened, but the staff did not see it occur. It still makes me physically ill thinking about the helplessness she must have experienced in that moment. We involved the police, child services, and the boy responsible now has a juvenile record for future reference if he reoffends. However, neither the school nor the YMCA took any responsibility for the negligence. I also did not like how much homework they gave kindergarteners and felt that, outside of the opportunities to meet other families when walking your child up to the gates, the school only cares about state grade upkeep and outside appearances. She is in another school in a completely different state now and is thriving in ways she never did at Grady.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Mitchell Elementary School! From the moment we stepped through the doors, we felt the warmth, care, and commitment of the staff and teachers. The school has created such a nurturing environment where children are not only encouraged to learn, but to thrive socially and emotionally as well.The teachers go above and beyond to make learning fun and engaging, always finding creative ways to spark curiosity and support each child’s unique learning style. The leadership team is approachable, communicative, and clearly dedicated to the success of every student.Our child has grown tremendously this year—not just academically, but in confidence and kindness too. The sense of community is strong, and it’s clear that everyone here—from the front office to the classroom—genuinely cares.We feel incredibly grateful to be part of such a positive and inspiring school. If you’re looking for a place where your child will be known, supported, and challenged in all the right ways, look no further!

As a volunteer, I see first hand the classroom routine. The students are learning from the moment they step into the classroom. They learn to follow daily instructions, be kind to their fellow students and experience their learning with great interest. The teacher I work with is never idle always working to benefit her class, both academically , emotionally and creatively. This school is great. The staff is always helpful. The environment is very clean and conducive for learning. The neighborhood seems safe and well kept. I definitely recommend this school. Principal / Vice-principal are excellent at their job. I love this school. It has been a great experience.
