  • My daughter went to this school from K and just got promated from 5th. I love this school and hate that my daughter finished her last year there. The teachers are great and Mrs Hollis was great. Thank GMV for some wonderful years.

  • Ganns is a FABULOUS school. I can't emphasize it enough. My kids have been going there since Kindergarten and LOVE it. I have one child in 5th and one in 3rd. The Faculty is awesome. They love the kids and invest in them. I wouldn't send my kids anywhere else.

  • I do not like anything about this school , especially the Kindergarten teacher my son has. It's sad to think teachers can treat little 5 yr olds the way they do. I have had problems with the teacher from day one. If you have a choice take my advice and don't send your child there. I was told this was a good school well, I'm there all the time and I see and hear a lot, and it's not good at all. I'm taking my son out and homeschooling , now I see why so many parents are homeschooling their children. I think if more parents ask questions and found out how their child is being treated they would feel the same way.
