Knock on wood we haven't had to find out. They are stressing anti-bullying - with posters all over the school and the counselor coming to speak with the kids.

So many of these students are English Language Learners that I think they don't always pinpoint learning disabilities as early as they could, but there is a lot of classroom support, both push in and pull out as seems warranted.

The new principal, Dr. Elliott is a DOER! She's been amazing and really injected new energy into the school.

With a whole lot of diversity, the messages of respect and compassion are central themes.

Our Kindergarten teacher was amazing. I'm not quite as thrilled with our First grade pick, but I'm looking forward to the Second grade team who have a reputation for being AMAZING.

So far the requirements for K and 1st grade have been very reasonable.

You shouldn't judge this little school by its numbers. We got an awesome new principal this year (2016-2017) and will start a new local level 4 AAP program next year. There is a tremendous sense of community and the staff is working really hard to make sure ALL of the students' needs are met. My child is inspired by the "specials" teachers and brings home songs, dances and art projects that are impressive. They have Spanish and Band and do enrichment classes as well as extra learning support in the afternoons to prepare the students. Good things are happening here!

I have two children that go to Graham Road and I have been very happy with the school. The teachers and staff at the school go above and beyond to create a great learning enviroment for my children. My kids also really enjoy being a part of the after school clubs.
