Governor's Ranch Elementary School Reviews

Principals in Jefferson County are reviewed on overall GPA and standardized test grades. Rather than working on getting the kids to improve grades, it's much easier get rid of the students that have challenges. Good students will be fine, students with issues or challenges will have problems. 'Programs' are offered by the district and sound great, but fail to deliver promised results.

This school is geared towards 'typical' children who never get into trouble. If your child has special needs or learning delays or disabilities, this is not the school for them. The atmosphere is very snotty and cliquey. Thank goodness for open enrollment.

This school not only has an outstanding academic environment, it has excellent - friendly and open parent involvement. This is such a welcoming and friendly school, and there is a strong emphasis on consideration and respect! Needless to say we are so glad that we chose this school for our son's elementary education. A large percentage of families are open enrolled by choice in this school which highlights its strengths. The principal is tremendously supportive of the staff and parent involvement. What more can we say! Signed, a statisfied parent at GRE!
