I have been in this school for all three years. I really loved all the activities, such as Outdoor Education, 7th Grade Musical, Field Trip, and more. There are so many activities, clubs, and fun stuff to do! The teachers are really nice and helpful. All the facilities are nice and lots of sports too. They teach the necessary skills that kids need to used to succeed in life. I hope to enjoy the rest of my last year here and hope all the best for all the kids going there, and those in younger grades!

Thomas Grover is such a great school. All of West Windsor-Plainsboro's school system is great. There is so much and they have such nice teachers. There health program is wonderful. Also they have amazing classes in Social Studies, Math, Science and IRLA. The lockers are so big, I even saw one. The gym teachers are wonderful and the sports teams win a lot. I highly recommend to sign your child up.
