Teachers here are burnt out and not supportive. The principal is unprofessional. Maybe it was a good school a decade ago but now this school is going downhill. I would be very cautious about sending your child here if depending on an IEP or 504 plan. The team lacks the leadership support needed to help a student to be successful. The school does not communicate clearly with parents or include them as team members in decisions. The leadership lacks understanding on what is needed and does not advocate to meet those needs with staff or resources.

I've had a child attending Grayhawk since 2013. We have two years left before my youngest child moves onto middle school and I feel so grateful for the academic, social and emotional foundation my kids have received at Grayhawk. We had a really good experience from the beginning but I would say that...

Grayhawk is an excellent elementary school. The teachers and staff really care about the students. We have been at Grayhawk for 6 years now, and I have seen tremendous growth in both of my kids. I highly recommend this community and this school!
