I went to Robinson Elementary School for K-5 and I loved every minute of it. Great teachers. Mr. Gilland was a cool principal. I remember that. I now attend Mercer University in Macon and I'm excelling in my field of study.

Both of my children attend Robinson Elem. It is a fantastic school with amazing teachers. Our experiences have been very positive. The teachers and staff are very caring and organized. My children look forward to going to school daily. :-)

I like this school. Both of my kids go to this school. However the classes rooms are crowded due to alot of kids transfer to this school from Black's Mill and Kilough. Makes me feel good to know this is a good school, however need to stop letting kids in this school who don't live in the area. Would make classes room smaller. Both of my kids love the school so do I.

Both my kids went through this school and both had great teachers and enjoyed the school. I have had a great experience with the teachers and staff. They care about your child and willing to do what they need to do to help your child learn.
