How can this school be considered a "gifted and talented" school with a rating of 3/10?
Posted by a community member on 10/21/2025We simply love Kingsley, a STEAM certified school. They really excel at providing project-based enrichment opportunities - including Montessori Mondays where students get to rotate to 2 different specials classes (e.g. in one of them called Writer's Workshop, my daughter spent 9 weeks writing her ow
Posted by a parent on 11/18/2019Overall, Kingsley has been an awesome neighborhood school for my family. We love all of the various enrichment opportunities that they offer. Those make a difference in keeping the kids engaged with the required lessons.
Posted by a parent on 10/27/2019I took my child for testing and interviewed at a top notch private school. We found out that my child was not being challenged and isn’t were he should be from Kingsley, academically due to the very high rating of low income students who come to school not knowing English at all. The fact that the t
Posted by a parent on 6/25/2019I loved the experience I had at this school because I made so many amazing friends, but I can only say that half my teachers had a positive impact on my life. Also, they are doing all they can to close the learning gap, but this really became an issue as the high achieving students weren't given the

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageVanderlyn is one of the best, if not THE best elementary school in Georgia. We moved from Vanderlyn to a “top preforming” school district and the difference is palpable. Principal Crenshaw is absolutely incredible, as was my child’s teacher. The entire staff is truly devoted to educating your child. My child made great gains at this school and we miss it dearly. The school really minimized instruction interruptions, and I was grateful for that from a safety perspective. Consider yourself lucky if your child is able to attend Vanderlyn.Parent Review1y ago - Huntley Hills Elementary School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is our second year at Chestnut, and unfortunately it has been the worst. Students are being taught reading foundations primarily on Chromebooks, with little insight into instruction. Communication from our child’s teacher is extremely limited unless supplies or snacks are needed. Grades are often posted months late, sometimes after the quarter ends, making it impossible to know what our child is learning or struggling with. Despite concerns raised by multiple parents, no meaningful changes have been made, and we are now halfway through the year. Our child began the year above average and is now testing below average on the MAP exam, which is very concerning. The lack of transparency and timely feedback makes it difficult for parents to support their children. Additionally, the school facilities need renovation, and there are minimal enrichment activities such as programs or plays. We are considering transferring to give our child a better opportunity to succeed.Parent Review4mo ago - Cary Reynolds Elementary School
