Very disappointed. Very little parental involvement and not the caliber of teachers I expected.

A public school with a private school mentality. The Principal is amazing, listens not only to the children, but to the parents. Parent involvement is very high with a lot of enthusiasm from many different cultures. Teachers are very attentive to each individual child's needs. Great atmosphere, beautiful campus and the IB Programme -- the only one in the southern end of LISD!

We have been thrilled with the administration and teachers at Grandview Hills. The campus is beautiful, the parent participation has been very good, and it seems to be a really happy, positive environment for our daughter. We came from a private school and had high expectations and Grandview has exceeded them!

I too am impressed with the faculty and their ability to influence children and leverage their available resources. My only complaint is that there still seems to be a communication issue (late notifications, inconsistent messaging, etc.) and I can't tell if that is because the leadership isn't following through with expectations, or that the teachers aren't quite sure how to manage the parents. It's a new school and I give them credit for coming so far in such a short period. I can only hope that the ISD is dedicating the time to learn from each school opening, and that they monitor/track progress....

I have two sons attending GVH Elementary now in it's first year. The class sizes are small, the teachers are top notch and the parent involvement and enthusiasm is high. I am thrilled to have my children attending GVH.

State of the art school.. Never seen any school like it in my life. Principal: is wonderful, loving,caring and most of all Listens to parents.. administration: very welcoming and very very helpful. Teachers: are great, boost self confidence in the kids .. students : are the happiest students I've ever seen in any public school, relaxed and disciplined at the same time . Look forward to going to school and really enjoy learning!! what a great combination of state- of- the-art facility, wonderful staff, happy students , great IB education in a PUBLIC school... Hats off to everyone there.. Happy parent :)
