“Briargrove Elementary, hasn't challenged my children enough. The academic programs have great content, but there seems to be little expectation from the students. The music program at Briargrove is wonderful, and students learn a variety of musical instruments and styles. There is an abundance of after school programs. On any given day the patio outside the cafeteria is full of parents who come to have lunch with their children, and the PTO is outstanding at raising funds to underwrite programs for the students.”

“Briargrove Elementary is the best public school in the Houston area. The teachers work like dogs to ensure that the kids are learning and happy in their environment. There is tons of parent involvement and a 'community feel'. Ann Sledge, the principal, is an excellent leader. I would feel extremely safe and lucky to send my child to this school.”

“Briargrove Elementary is almost like a private school! The teachers work so hard to make sure the kids get a quality education. Not only are they sure to get a quality education here, but there are all sorts of fun programs throughout the year - a very family oriented, student centered, neighborhood school.”

“My daughter is in kindergarten this year. She loves this school and so do we, she has learnt a lot, the teachers and the principal are very nice to the students, they introduced TRIBES agreements, which I feel is a must for every kid. My kid refers to those agreements everyday after she comes from school. There is a lot of positive approach in my kid. I am proud of my kid and the school and staff.”

“My son is in the First Grade Sights program at Briargrove. After 9 months, he went from reading Hop on Pop to 5th Grade Level reading. I don't think that a private school could have offered more, except a lot of expense! The teachers and administrative staff are fantastic and the school encourages and rewards each student's individual success.”
