Almeda Elementary School

My experience at this school was absolutely AWESOME!! This school was not only a place of employment, but it was a close nit family oriented school within the community and among the staff. This school makes me feel like the sitcom "CHEERS" I wanna goooo where everyone knows my name. The staff is so loving and understanding as well as knowledgeable. We achieved so much more because we worked together on one accord to accomplish the tasks at hand. Mrs. Kiser is an impactful leader whom motivates the students to strive for success daily. Mrs. Moore is a great listener, and great teacher in which she continues to bring joy in the classroom. I really appreciate Ms. RAYFORD for the inspiration and motivation that shed light into my situations. She motivates students, and encourages them while bringing excitement to the classroom. Nurse Dones is very sincere, trustworthy and hard working nurse who is great at what she does. The ancillary team are AMAZING!!!!! I want to give a shout out to Coach Cornell, Ms. Blackwell, Mrs. Simmons, annnnd MR. Makoge for all the hard work and dedication they pour out! They made my day enjoyable ALL THROUGHOUT THE DAY! Ms. A in PALS class for having the ideal model classroom setup showing education in motion. There are so many things I can talk about, but most people forget those small things that really matters. I am thankful for the journey I experienced at Grissom. They always will be my Grissom family.

Wonderful school with traditional values that will bring the best out of our children- academically & socially. Quality education in the heart of Hiram Clark

The front desk staff is rude, and will make it obvious that they don't like you.I handle everything through Nolan Ryan Junior High for now, and am dreading my eldest going to high school and forcing me to deal with Marek's admin staff again.

My child has been enjoying kindergarten and got accepted into the GT program. We look forward to seeing what the future grades hold. We haven't had any issues with the staff or teachers.

We are a military family that was transitioning into a civilian job. We arrived late at HCA for my sons kindergarten year. They welcomed us with ooen arms. The teachers work so hard to ensure they are offering rigor meaningful to that students personal abilities. My son improved his reading and math skills here. We werent able to finish the year either due to a new job relocation and sadly he would miss out on his graduation. So the staff and his terrific kinder teacher did a practice graduation on his last day a few weeks before the real thing. This was so much above and beyond. A year full of change for my son this school was such a bright and happy spot for him to think back on.
