IN THE KNOW: Metro Atlanta’s Best Schools

December 9, 2008 by Lee Davenport  

Relocating to Metro Atlanta with school-aged children/teens?  This isn’t Kansas anymore nor is this as simple as High School Musical part 1, 2, or 3.  You may be aware of Georgia’s poor educational reputation, including the current lose of Clayton County School District’s accreditation, and you may be afraid… very afraid. 

You may fear your college-bound child may not receive the educational support her young, gifted mind needs as you relocate to Metro Atlanta from public schooling.  Or, you may be afraid that you will spend 3-4 times the amount for elementary and secondary schooling that you would pay to send your little blessing to one of the most exclusive, expensive universities America has to offer. 

Well, have no fear, below you can learn what the top public schools are in the most sought-after parts of Metro Atlanta right here before relocating.  So here goes…

Atlanta Public Schools (www.atlanta.K12.ga.us):  Brandon Elementary School, Inman Middle School, and North Atlanta High School

Cherokee County Schools (www.cherokee.k12.ga.us):  Woodstock Elementary School, Creekland Middle School, and Etowah High School

Cobb County Schools (www.cobb.k12.ga.us):  Timber Ridge Elementary School, Dickerson Middle School, and Walton High School

DeKalb County Schools (www.dekalb.k12.ga.us):  Vanderlyn Elmentary School, Peachtree Middle School, and Chamblee High School
