This school great. I am very pleased with the teachers and both of my kids love. Thank you All

We moved here from a great blue ribbon school system in NJ so we were hopeful but nervous about a new school system moving into a new state. Well, Groveland Elementary has exceeded our expectations by every imagination. The teachers and staff are so devoted and caring that you can feel the positivity as soon as you walk into the school. From the principal on, EVERY person who works there truly LOVES their job and sincerely cares for the kids... it shows. Even the custodians are kind and caring (and they are cleaning up the messes all day which is what most Moms hate to do) . The school continually shows appreciation for all those who help make Groveland great and I personally feel that when people feel appreciated they are more prone to do their best. Every effort is 100% and that is how the children are being groomed. The school focuses on respect, responsibility, cooperation and sportsmanship.. they operate like a giant team and its amazing!

I was doing the pledge on my knee while eating lunch and i started to choke but it wasn't on lunch

BFS is an amazing school where students thrive in an environment where they feel safe, supported, and genuinely appreciated for who they are. Because of these qualities, the students are definitely engaged, support each other, are confident, and advocate for themselves. The academics are strong and taught in an engaging way, which fosters a deep understanding and mastery of the subjects. I've found that the students in all grades are well-spoken, love to share what they've learned, and are happy! BFS also offers great special programming including weekly assemblies which open interests for the students, and Quaker meetings which give everyone in the community a chance to reflect. I also love how the students are active and outside! The kids really love to play in the new playgrounds, enjoy the beautiful open space, climb trees, and go sledding — which is awesome! All the new facilities are top-notch; they are light-filled, beautifully designed to reflect the school's attention to nature, and support the teaching and learning that take place in the classrooms. I'm very impressed with all that BFS has to offer!
