Terrible school TERRIBLE leadership, does not care about the children does not care about their education. My children had good grades up until they went to this school and then their grades traumatically dropped. Not to mention a teacher was inappropriate with my child and instead of investigating, they sided with the teacher and made it seem as if I were the stereotypical angry black person opposed to ensuring that the children were safe. Fortunately I was able to move, so that my kids could go to a much better school. They are very happy and making great grades. I also feel like my children were missed treated because they were children of color. If you can help it do not send your children to this terrible school. The school score speaks for itself.

The teacher do not care enough about the children's learning experience, and not enough parent teacher communication.

Sandy Grove is a wonderful school with caring teachers and staff. Our child is in the classroom for special needs. We are very impressed with how much she has learned during the 3 years of enrollment. Our child enjoys going to school, and looks forward to learning everyday.

this school is alot better than what East Hoke Middle School school was 20 years ago. It was the worst I'd ever seen aside from Hoke High School. I hope that by the time my son gets to High school there's a different one to go to or they totally straighten it up

Sandy Grove Elementary is a wonderful learning facility. The teachers have high expectations for students and go above and beyond for every child. Thank you to every staff member at Sandy Grove Elementary for teaching my child and helping him to be a success!

I worked at Sandy Grove temporarily and quit during the school year because it was such a horrendous place to work. The whole vibe and feel of the school is very negative. There is very poor leadership and disregard for the best interest of the children that go there. Unfortunately we live in the district. We are trying to move. My child will NEVER go there.

This is my childrens second year at Sandy Grove and they love it! Their teachers are great at communicating with us about our children's needs and what they expect. They have enjoyed going to this school.

I would never send my child here. When we moved here from out of state, I went to the school to enroll my kids. I was skeptical because of the low test scores. When we entered, there was a staff member with a line of children at the water fountain. I assume a teacher. She was yelling at the kids with such contempt in her voice that it made me so angry I went in to the office to discuss it with the principal. BTW, I didn't see anything that warranted her behavior. The office staff could not speak proper english and were completely unprofessional. We opted for a private school. Parents beware.

My child attended Sandy Grove for the first time this year. Her and I loved the teachers, staff, and principal. She thrived and her teacher and staff did everything they could to ensure her success.
