    We were a bit nervous sending my daughter into the public school system but am very impressed at the professionalism and results here at Garden City Elementary. Our daughter is in Kindergarten and is already reading and doing simple math problems. I don't recall learning any of this until the first grade. The social skills that are taught are out of this world and they do not tolerate any misbehavior. They are quick to identify and correct any problems. Ms. Childs and Ms. Futch are two wonderful caring teachers who are easy to talk to and show a genuine concern for all the children. The whole class is a ray of sunshine and the kids love to learn. I am absolutely impressed with this school. They have it together.
