Bullard Elementary School

We’ve had a wonderful experience at Hayes Elementary. The teachers are deeply committed to providing a strong educational foundation, and safety is clearly a top priority. I also appreciate how involved parents are encouraged to be—it truly feels like a community!

As an educator myself, I relocated schools for work so I was on the hunt for a safe space for my son to learn and grow for his remaining elementary years. We’ve found that Lewis Elementary has offered his best elementary years. The wonderful administrators, teachers, and staff at LES are welcoming and kind which allows me to drop my son off daily with a smile on his face excited for the day ahead. I see the same eagerness reflected in so many others as they approach from the car line and I know it’s because of how much each staff member pours into students academically and personally. We’re forever grateful for this loving, inclusive community and how they’ve embraced our family. If we could do anything different, we’d choose this school over and over and this time do K-5. That’s a statement in itself because as an employee, I can choose it send my kid wherever in the county but Lewis truly is a hidden gem.

As an Alumni, I implore you to send your kids anywhere else. Will they be college ready? Sure. That’s about the only benefit. The administration have all known each other for years, and will make excuses/ back each other up no matter what. They make examples out of children who make mistakes while taking no accountability themselves. I graduated a few years ago and after having several years of true adulthood under my belt, I have yet to meet a more hypocritical, graceless, judgmental, group of people (And I work in healthcare). A majority of teachers hired are personal friends or friends of friends, regardless of qualification. Teachers children/ children whose parents donate are favored and it’s very apparent, speaking from experience. If your child does not fit their mold, they will be treated as they as lesser than. I graduated with my faith hanging on by a thread. There are a very small handful of teachers there who I think stay to try to make a difference. I owe them everything.

Disgusting place for anyone of color. I had a flat tire and parked in the parking lot because it was the closest location, while waiting for roadside, a man a approached my car to ask me how’d I get in here after acknowledging the flat tire then proceeded to have security watch me and my 2 kids until it was resolved. He seemed so disgusted that we were there. Not a place for anyone of color, Kennesaw.

So personally I am writing this review as I went to fbcs for around 6 years and then I left to go to a diffrent school. This schools teaching ability’s are no where near good, it is basically no man left behind. We had 4 lockdowns in the span of a year when I was in fifth grade. The only good teacher was the principal and 1st grade teacher. I would never send my future kid here, when I was bullied nobody cared. I hated this school. I would never reccomend it to anyone, it’s worst than a public school
