Quality Score: 4 Post Date:2008-11-21
“My son has had and is continuing to receive an excellent education with the Des Moines Public Schools. He was an Adams student that merged with Garton. He has had a very positive response to the school, the teachers and the students. His teachers have been excellent. He is excited about learning and enjoys going to school. Keep up the good work!” This review was posted by a parent.

“Garton School has one of the finest staffs anywhere. Every teacher my two children have had works hard to ensure that each student works to his or her fullest potential. Children who have any special needs will work with some of the best special education people available. Every student, no matter what their needs or abilities is treated fairly by all. I can not say enough good things about Garton School.” This review was posted by a parent.
