As a grandmother I am telling you this school is wonderful! They are family oriented, in that all family members get involved in the child's overall education. It's like it used to be when I was a child. They teach lost values like common sense, ethics, striving for excellence and enjoyment/fulfillment of learning. My grandson is always happy and ready to tell you what he learned that day. It's all very exciting for him! Enrollment is down due to the recession. This is NOT an ordinary prep school. Most of these kids are from regular backgrounds and many of their parents go without everything else to send them here. This is how school is supposed to be.
Our children have been at Grandview for several years now and have thrived. I can't imagine another school where the teachers could be so connected with who they are as individuals and care so sincerely about them. Some schools are great at taking already talented kids and helping them along the way, but the teachers at Grandview also take the time to discover the talent and foster it. It's also a place where our kids can be with a diverse population and come to value individual differences. We love it!
My son attended seventh grade at this school and when he need additional help understanding complex math/algebra the teacher told him to hire a tutor. These people are more concerned about getting the $18,000 per year out of your pocket book and doing as little as possible work versus caring about the quality of a student's education! My child is now in a public school getting a far better education without spending $18,000 per year!
My daughter attends Grandview, (senior high school student), and has had academically challenging coursework, in a family supportive, community environment. The faculty is the best!
