The only thing the principal cares about is attendance scores. Your child can have doctor's notes and high grades and they will still harass you for every day not in the school. When children are sick, keep them home, it's the responsible thing to do.

We had a very good Kindergarten year! Teacher and staff we engaged with were quite supportive. 2020.

This school does not offer any extra curricular programs like some of the nearby Flower Mound schools. The programs they do offer are very expensive and only last a short time. My son went here and he was surrounded by kiddos who held inappropriate conversations, used bad language and treated each other disrespectfully...this was not corrected by anyone at the school.

We have been at GRE for three years, I feel like we got so lucky moving here from out of state and not knowing the area. The administration have been so warm and welcoming, my kids love their teachers and friends they have met. The PTA does so many great things for the students throughout the year....GRE is home, the kids love going to school everyday!

this school has extreme disciplinary policies Lack of compassion and concern for the well being of the children and have a Stepford wife mentality disconnected would appear that they are dealing with adults and the lack understanding of elementary age children. really need to make administrative changes

I have two children at Garden Ridge. They have had great teachers, who have provided additional content and challenges for them, beyond grade level basics. Mr. Acosta, the assistant principal, is a very visible face of the school- and knows all the families (not just current students) by name. The Art and G/T teacher are exceptional. The PTA could use some extra help, but has done a great job of holding events which get families involved. I have appreciated being able to walk my child to class in Kindergarten, Read in the hall with students through second grade, and have always felt welcome in this school. The office staff is friendly and helpful, and they set a tone for the school. Nurse Sheila truly cares about the kids, and takes time to deal with small things too. There is a lot of parent involvement for events. Garden Ridge would benefit from a few more clubs, but I feel the environment and education have been top notch.

This is more than a school. It is a community. My grand daughter has attended this school for 3 years. I know she is treated with respect as well as an individual. The teachers are first rate. Their commitment comes through in their warmth, their knowledge, their sense of not only teaching their students but all. I am grateful for this school that provides a broader sense of what our educational system provides and top educational standards.
