Rocky Ridge Elementary School

Great Leadership and personal attention to each child. Entering fourth year at the school and could not be more excited! Parent involvement is tough and seems that same parents handle all aspects...wish there was more involvement but the school cannot do anything about that type of issue.

Another year completed at Rocky Ridge and we continue to be impressed. Small classes and welcome parent participation make a huge difference as well as the emphasis on the music, art and technology. Glad we are here!!

I am so proud that my children attend Rocky Ridge Elementary! The classes are small with excellent, devoted teachers. There seems to be an emphasis on technology, which is important in our modern world. The school is always squeeky clean.

My child started kindergarten this year. She has done so well and we have felt so welcome. It has been a pleasure watching her learn so much and have fun with learning. After much prayer, God revealed to us that his will was for our child to attend Rocky Ridge (as opposed to private schooling). The size of the classes are smaller than I expected, so I really feel like she gets the attention that she needs in learning. As for the March 20 post, I've not seen any trailers, but frankly, I'm not as concerned about the building my child is in, as much as WHO is in it teaching her, and that teacher's abilities and overall character. As much as there is the world today to worry about when raising a child, trailers are the least of our worries.

We are thrilled with Rocky Ridge. Our daughter started kindergarten there this year. She was reading after two months at school. The teachers and staff are fantastic. We are grateful that our children attend there. We got involved with PTO right from the beginning and that has been wonderful too. :)

I am concerned about the March 2004 response. We have been at Rocky Ridge since 2003 and there have never been any trailers at the school. Most teachers have Master's degrees or more. Many are nationally certified. We have been very pleased with the teachers and the quality of education received at Rocky Ridge. I have nothing negative to say about Rocky Ridge. /

I could not be more happy with Rocky Ridge. My daughter has learned so much in the two years that she has been here, plus she really loves it. I am surprised by the reviewer who disliked the school so much. I have not experienced ANY of the problems listed. If I had a choice of sending my child to a different school or stay at RRES, I would stay where we are. The only problem I have encountered has been with parent involvement, but I do not fault the school for that problem.

We love Rocky Ridge! My daughter went to kindergarten and 1st grade and rocky ridge the school is amazing. The principal makes you feel like part of the family. The teachers are wonderful my daughter has learned to much from this school. They have a great art program. Parents are encouraged to get involed. It is such a wonderful place to learn. We are so sad to be leaving my husbands being stationed in Virginia, we are going to miss rocky ridge so much. I think this school gave my daughter an exceptional foundation for her to learn and i am thankfull she got to go to this school. Hope to find another like it.

My child has had a very positive learning experience at this school. We were forced to transfer here because of rezoning, and we had strong misgivings, beause of negative press. We couldn't have been been more pleasantly surprized. I feel this school has offered my child more, in every way, than his previous school, Greystone.
