2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is excellent. The staff is amazing, caring and well educated. They go above and beyond to educate the students and involve parents. Leadership is fantastic and it really is the best school in the dekalb school district. In reference to the garbage dump on the other side of the expressway, the school installed a system that monitors the air inside and outside every day. There are no air quality issues. The one day there was a problem, waste management hit a gas pocket while digging. It was not anything that has ever been repeated.Again, I would not want my kids in any other school.
