Austinville Elementary School

This is a great school. The faculty is awesome. I like how the kids have a chance to be involved in community activities. I like that communication is always sent home about what's going on.

West Decatur is a wonderful school where learning is occurring daily. Teachers are dedicated to all students learning. The principal is excited and willing to work in what ever area is needed.

My family moved to Decatur from out of state almost two years ago, and my daughter is about to finish her second year at Walter Jackson. I can't say enough good things about this school! We (my husband, daughter, and myself) absolutely love Walter Jackson and are so very pleased with our decision for our daughter to attend WJES. We will recommend WJ highly to anyone who asks and even to those who don't. The principal, teachers, and rest of the staff are all amazing, and the school itself is always well kempt. The culture and education that my daughter receive daily from her teachers and the diverse student population will last a lifetime.

My two boys currently going here, the principal there shows favoritism towards my boys I’m not sure why , ever since my boys have been attending this school, I really thought this school was going to be great for my boys but it’s the principal & teachers that makes me feel uncomfortable everytime I drop my boys off, because it’s the energy they give , like the awkward looks they give me it’s not so welcoming like the other school my boys attended before , I’m not comfortable with them being there any longer this will be their last year attending

Excellent! Strong commitment by teachers to assist.
