My child started school at Blandford with failing grades in March 2011. This was very upsetting I knew she was not going to pass to the second grade, I knew her teacher in Memphis was the problem ,but I couldn't believe the turn around in how my child acted and begun to enjoy doing her school work again ..Not only in the short time she was at Blandford did she pass she also received an award for Reading, Social studies and citizenship she also liked her teacher (Mrs. Kellie Roberts). I am very impressed with this school... Close Quote
