Kennedy Elementary School

My son will not be attending this school next year. The fact that grown adults can’t even move through a school drop off line conducive nor do they know how to use a four-way stop effectively. This has caused my son as well as as many other students to be late because parents aren’t paying attention to how fast the cars are moving in the line. Then you have people coming from every which way trying to get to the line itself. It took at least two weeks this school year to figure out a better way to get these kids dropped off just for the original plan to be back in effect and now parents are being penalized because it’s taking too long to get the kids into the school and if indeed the kids are late, it takes an extra 5 to 8 minutes just to get to the front office to check them in. This has been a hindrance we will definitely not be attending next year. Whoever thought it was a great idea to put three schools plus a senior citizen home on the same road must be full of rubbish I hope and pray that the staff in and other employees of barrel County would have some grace for these kids and try and see how idiotic it is just to get to this dang school on Time never again

Only one word to describe. AMAZING! Our 2 girls have been attending here for the past 5 years. The small classroom sizes allows them to excel at their own pace and all of the teachers and staff have become like family. This school has been a true blessing to our family.

I have no idea how they are ranking this school. 2 years ago my son was in a school in Mission, Texas. And he absolutely hated it. Teachers were not helpfull, he got bullied alot. Spoke with school system, yet no result. I personally had to speak with bully's parents to have it stopped. (This Elementary school is ranked 8/10). Then we moved to winder. I see the school ranking in 2/10. First I was disappointed. Then I spoke with the principal. OMG the ranking is wrong. My son and now my daughter loves going to school every day. They have no issues making new friends. This is his 2nd year in winder elementary. And if this school is so bad at education, how come my son is 24/25 barrow county spelling bee champion. Everyone in winder elementary, thank you for everything you do for our kids. I know I appreciate all the help I get from the teachers and staff.
