Kincaid is a wonderful school. My three kids all attend, the teacher's are all exceptional. The new principal is exceptional as well as the assistant principal. We could not be happier. The office staff is helpful and nice. If your a parent that needs help with something, the principal is right

The principal, the staff, and the many teachers that my kids have had have all gone above and beyond what you'd expect the average person to do when it comes to helping my kids learn. The math teacher is brilliant. Even the music teacher is really awesome. We have been involved with Kincaid for over 5 years, involved with many teachers and they are all exceptional, fair, wonderful people who love children. Read less

Our son attended Kincaid for two years (Kindergarten & 1st) and we were consistently dismayed throughout. The teachers were over-stretched (18:1 ratio) and sorely under-motivated. The PTA is fabulous, but sadly they don't teach the children. Facilities are fair; the building is a rabbit-warren but once

I have no idea about the lower grades but we joined Kincaid this year and are very pleased with the professionalism and attitude of my 4th grader's teacher. She sure keeps him challenged and expects a lot from the class. It all depends on who you get. Mrs. Thompson (4th grade teacher) is gr8. She

My son is currently in the 1st grade at Kincaid. His teacher, Mrs. Glass, has been engaging and inspiring. His class size (16 kids) is small and it's something the school tries hard to maintain. When he was in K the principal recruited a new teacher to reduce class size and it was very beneficial to

His teacher, guidance counselor, asst. principal and principal were so supportive and offered thoughtful suggestions. The PE, Music and Art programs are very good and my son looks forward to participating in each. The PTA is second to none. The parental involvement in this school is great and adds so much to the school. This is one of the smallest schools in E. Cobb & one of the best kept secrets. Read less

I have two children at Kincaid and have been pleased with their experiences. The teachers are accessible, responsive and motivated. The use of weblogs to keep us appraised of assignments, tests and upcoming events was very beneficial since our children sometimes forget to tell us. The PTA is very

This year they chose the theme 'Get on Board with Kincaid' and had many successful events for the children. The music teacher deserves a special mention as he has inspired both children and parents with his development of a chorus program and scheduled public performances around the community. The Aladdin performance this May is expected to sell out all seats. In short Kincaid is a great school and we, as parents, fully recommend without reservation. Read less

We love Kincaid and am sorry to read the first response because no one I know has had the same experience. I have a 5th grader and 1st grader both of whom have had excellent teachers each year. PTA and parents are very involved, which the school encourages. It's the best kept secret in East Cobb!
