If your 1st grader attends Ms. Glazier's class they are in for a real treat. While this is her first year at Dunwoody Springs she is not jaded to some unethical actions and routines like some of the long time teachers and have a genuine love for teaching. The staff is very close nit so beware. Over all the curriculum is great it is the front office staff and other teachers that makes the experience not so good. I give my overall 2 year experience here a C+
Really like this school. The energy in the building is really fabulous. You can tell the teachers and admin really care about the children and WANT to be there. They use in-school field trips and technology to enhance the education the kids are given in the classroom (most classrooms have those Promethean boards - great stuff). Everyone is very loving from the custodians to the front desk personnel to the principal: the kids (and their parents) feel welcomed and appreciated. We're really enjoying our experience there and so glad we chose public over private. My two students are thriving at DSES!
We have been at Dunwoody Springs for three years now. This is a phenomenal school! The teachers and adminstration are outstanding! The education that my children are receiving is priceless! I would recommend this school to anyone interested!
Dunwoody Springs is an AMAZING school! You cannot find a more highly qualified, creative and caring staff! We all go above and beyond the call of duty to provide optimal learning experiences for ALL learners! We believe in educating the whole child and I am proud to be a teacher in our building!
I've been a parent at Dunwoody Springs for 4 years and I've been thrilled with the quality of education my two children have received there. Every teacher they have had has been stellar and my kids are continually challenged and encouraged even though they are very different learners - I know they are not using the 'cookie cutter approach' there. The principal is great and has the best interest of the kids at heart (probably because she also has a child attending the school). I would like it if the parent involvement would be a bit higher than it is, but it is growing steadily and the parents that are involved are great. Can't say enough good things about Dunwoody Springs; I would recommend this school to anyone!
What a great school. The principa, Mrs. Freeman is amazing. She knows her students, parents and teachers well. She fits the school to best benefit the needs of the kids... My daughter has Mrs. Agri. I am so thrilled with her. She is kind, sweet and above all one of the most spectacular teachers I have ever been with. I have 3 older kids who are now in middle school so I have seen a lot of teachers. Not one holds a candle to this one
Great teachers and great principal! This school is an undiscovered jewel hiding right here in plain sight!
We finished our first year at DSCS and all I can say is WOW! My daughter received a private school education at a public school. Mrs. Agri was the BEST! She motivated my daughter to above and beyond the normal expectations. Lucky for us, she is moving to first grade and taking her entire class with her!!! Mrs. Gainey could not find a better teacher!
I am new to Dunwoody Springs. My son has Mrs. Agri. It was nice to see her name splashed all over this sight. She is pretty amazing. High expectations, a caring disposition and a really funny sense of humor. I think we need to let more parents know about this sight so we can see opinions of some of the other great teachers at the school. I am sure it is full of them.. Great job Mrs. Agri! Ahall.
Excellent School sad to hear Mrs.Bennett is not there any more! She was a great principal!
