This is a fantastic school! Not only does it offer the IB curriculum but the teachers go above and beyond the call of duty! My son's Kindergarten teacher has come to his activities outside of the class to show her support and to reinforce the fact to him that school and home are intertwined. The curriculum is rigorous in a good way and the entire staff focuses on creating well rounded individuals that will be productive in the comminutiy rather than just children who are book smart. I cannot say enough positive things about the school, the staff and the facility! It really is a hidden gem!

As a parent, I could not be more please with the quality of the education my son receives at Sawyer RD. The teachers are caring, devoted and extremely skilled. The leadersip is outstanding and strives to inspire teachers/staff to continue to learn, be creative and use their talents. There is so much opportunity for the children to develop their interests and talents through a challenging yet nurturing approach.

An International Bacceloreate (IB) education for elementary ages children will provide them with the extra advantage needed in the global market we live in. Many families pay $15,000 + a year for an IB education at local private elementary schools. This opportunity is unmatched. Once you realize the value, prestige, and rigorus academics an IB education provides you will love this school as much as our family does.

Sawyer Road is a wonderful school! As a parent I am grateful my kids attend this school. Teachers are wonderful. I have seen how they do their best to make sure my children reach their full potential. The building is new, lots of windows, computers and SmartBoards on every classroom. My kids love the Starfish Reef and the discipline plan is awsome. THe principal is the most caring principal I have ever met. She loves all the kids. Specially, I love the IBO program. The IB learner profile where they want students to be communicators, risk-takers, knowledgeable, open-minded, reflective, principled, balanced, inquirer, thinker, and caring, is exactly what I want for my kids to have for the rest of their lives. At Sawyer Road, teachers and staff understand that a child-centered education is the best for the student. I am grateful for the

All those people who wrote bad reviews should think wisely before talking. I actually attended this school and personally, I loved it. Both of my parents were actively involved in the school without being in the PTA. Even when my grandmother came to visit from new york the school allowed her to volunteer. About the school's academic abilities, our school's reading bowl, which i was in, won, beating the magnet school. Also, in the district spelling bee, our student, which was me, came in 2nd place. By the way, this was all in the first year Sawyer Road opened. Marietta School District is one of the best districts in the state, so get your facts straight before writing stupidity. I love this school, it has much to give to students from a beta club to safety patrol. I'm a freshman in highschool now.

Great school! I was hesitant because this was an MCS school...but I have to be honest, our experience has been great! My daughter did exceptionally well on her testing, and her wonderful teacher played a huge role in getting her prepared. I am really satisfied, and plan to continue with Sawyer!
