Garth Elementary School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2008-02-23 “I have been involved at Garth Elementary in many ways as I have my fourth child enrolled there. I have been PTO President, Volunteer Trainer, and member of numerous committees. At Garth Elementary my children have received a good foundation and preparation for the next step: middle school. My fourth child is in fifth grade at Garth and we will all miss the connection both educational and personal. The teachers care about your kids and welcome parent involvement. The office staff couldn't be better, are very welcoming and make a wonderful first impression for this school. I love Garth Elementary!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2005-12-06 “My oldest attended Garth from 4th to 5th grade after leaving private school in Georgetown. I was very pleased with the education he received here. The teachers were wonderful and very caring about him. My youngest is in Kindergarden there now and we love it! He is so excited about school and the teachers and support staff there are fantastic. I volunteer and see many opportunities for parents to be as involved as they want to be with their childrens educations at Garth. If we move in Scott County out of district I would most likely open enroll my son there and provide his transportation! Garth is great!” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2005-09-07 “Garth is below average academically. Especially in Math & Reading. They have not welcomed parent involvement in my childs education. The school has quality teachers, however internal politics/onflicts take away from their ability to concentrate on the children. The school is ran like a business versus an educational program. The children are viewed as numbers not individuals. The Scott Co District offers open enrollment as an alternative.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2004-03-05 “We love this school. The staff is wonderful and really care about the students and stay involved with the family. They are fair with each child. Saftey is high on the list at garth, up there with learning. No child is treated better than the other and the teachers we have delt with do all they can to help children adjust if they have any problems. We are staying with garth and have one more who will be going there aswell.”
