The teachers are the best and the staff / front office is wonderful at planning activities that support our teachers and/or are so fun and exciting for the kids. I am thankful for the wonderful teachers the school has consistently had for my children and also for the organization and amazing talent of the staff and Director to put on wonderful (and very cute!) events. We had a previous daycare experience prior to this and TGS Franklin by far excels at providing excellent care for our kids while also supporting the wonderful teachers. I’m also so appreciative of the activities the teachers plan and provide for our children on a daily basis so that they get the best learning (and fun) experience possible. Thank you TGS Franklin!!
My children are learning a lot and do enjoy school. They love their teachers! The school also has great events like grandparents day and random others.
We are very pleased with our child's experience at the school this year. The school environment feels welcoming, safe, and structured, which has helped our child grow both academically and socially. The communication from the school has been clear and consistent, and we appreciate the effort put into creating a supportive learning community.
We would also like to commend the teacher for their dedication, patience, and enthusiasm. They have taken the time to understand our child's strengths and areas that need more support.
Thank you for all the hard work—it truly makes a difference in our child's learning journey.
We are so grateful to have a place like The Gardner School of Franklin, we completely trust all the teachers and feel at ease when sending our little one to school. Everyone is so kind and we (including our babe) could not be happier there!
After Covid, the teacher retention has been more consistent. I also love that there’s a playground inside so the kids can still get energy out. The curriculum this year has been better than in Covid years and the students seem to be learning more.
Teachers are able to answer any questions I have about my child's day. I like the messaging feature on Brightwheel because I can directly communicate with the teachers if I need to mention something, and vice versa. Upon coming into the classroom to pick up my child, I can tell by the appearance of the classroom that my child is being cared for with good quality. In other words, I do not see evidence of poor care.
I believe her teacher’s care about my child and her classmates. I know she likes going to school everyday. I love Brightwheel and being able to see her throughout the day!
Our children have had the most wonderful teachers while at the Gardner School and we have enjoyed all the activities planned by the staff and extra curriculars offered by the school as well! We have had great experiences at this school during our past five years of attending and I consider the teachers and staff top notch!
The level of security is amazing. I’m never concerned when I drop off my girls.
The quality of staff is awesome. While there is some turnover with staff I’m always confident that whoever comes in will be amazing and take good care of my children.
I have an infant and a toddler at The Gardner School and I get so many updates and photos throughout the day. It’s hard being away from them and working so it always brightens my day when I can see what they are up to and learning. The photos are always a good pick me up.
I’ve really enjoyed seeing Ayansh’s progress, especially in reading and writing. I’m so happy and satisfied with how far he’s come. It’s truly exciting to witness his continuous growth and improvement, and I’m looking forward to even more progress ahead!
Additionally, extra-curricular activities, especially when it comes to art and craft. It's a skill that I find both fulfilling and creative.
The faculty and staff members are incredibly warm and welcoming, creating an environment that truly feels like home. Their kindness and support foster a sense of belonging, making it easy to engage and thrive.
I received an update from my child's homeroom teacher about their first day, which was very pleasant and reassuring. The school has experienced teachers and offers various developmental programs for children. My daughter loves going to this school and enjoys her stay during the day.
