Rivercliff Lutheran School

Very large school, large student population, and not a lot of available communication or support because of the number of students in each class and number of classes. They regularly have to dismiss behavior issue otherwise the front office would be filled daily. Therefore, other student’s learning and general well being is effected. They don’t have consistent staff including admin, so it is hard for students to get consistent messages and discipline year to year. The math curriculum they have right now is horrendous and the reading curriculum is outdated and does not address esol or general knowledge gaps well. They are trying but in my opinion it shouldn’t even be allowed for elementary schools to be this big and such a large population.

Mi nena ha estado en esta escuela desde KG y ha sido maravilloso, ella realmente ama la escuela, el programa ESOL funciona muy bien u todo el personal está siempre atento a escucharte.

Dunwoody Springs is a blessing for this community! This school is so much more than its rating. It is a school that prides its self on lifting up and educating each child regardless of their social economic status. TRY OUR SCHOOL! I promise you will be happy you did.

Once a good school, they’ve continued to struggle to hire top talent. Many of the teachers are not trained teachers. Although we didn’t attend Davis, many of our friends did. Their marketing is excellent, but everything else is pretty weak for such an expensive school. I would look other places.

All three of my children are High Meadows alumni. They were students from preschool to 8th grade. I recently became reengaged with the school for their 50th anniversary and student outcomes are the same now as they were 20 years ago. I have witnessed the love of learning, the self-advocacy, and the ethical leadership carried out in my children’s adult lives. In any given situation, they are seen as leaders, excellent communicators, and advocates for themselves and others. Many thanks to the faculty and staff who act more as guides and evaluators than the traditional sense of teachers talking at the students. Academically, they are prepared for any type of post High Meadows higher learning, traditional public, progressive private, ivy league, etc. Even better is that the students are very adept at choosing higher learning that “fits” them. Additionally, the community is amazing. Communication is welcomed and encouraged by leadership. My children and I have made lifelong friends through High Meadows. I am still friends with many other parents of High Meadows students, even though our lives have taken us in many different directions.
