Kemp Elementary is an excellent school. The teachers and staff are always happy, working hard to do whatever it takes to make sure students are successful and reach their academic potential. The principal, Kristy Mason does an outstanding job leading this school. The teachers, parents and students love her. She is the guiding force that creates the environment of academic excellence at Kemp.
Kemp is a first class school!!! The administration - Mrs. Mason & Mr. Mason - are wonderful, very personable and easy to work with. The teachers are great too. Many go above and beyond the basics to help students. There is a large amount of parent participation and it really shows. The PTA is strong and has done many wonderful things for the school. I have a 1st & 4th grader and have been very pleased with Kemp.
Friendly atmosphere, motivated students, and very helful parents.
The hard working staff and friendly parents and PTA. Our school cares about each child. The principal is very easy to talk to and is always available for parents.
Because they have a great parent participation. Their teachers and students are great.
My children currently attend Kemp and I will tell you that you will not find a better school anywhere! The teachers are awarding winning, intelligent, caring individuals. The staff are outstanding and the facility is beautiful, clean, and current. I highly recommend.
Kemp just won the 2008 Georgia School of Excellence. This is the 2nd year the state has recognized the outstanding achievement of the staff and students. Thank you Ms. Mason and Ms. Thomas as well as all of the Kemp Staff. C. Lewis
Kristy Mason and Shea Thomas have done so many wonderful things in the last year as the administration at Kemp. Test scores were raised 6% with 98% of the students meeting or exceeding expectations on the CRCT. What great leadership.
Kemp is awesome! My son started in kindergarten the first year it opened and is now going into the 5th grade. We have had 5 great years there! The teachers are excellent and the parent support is overwhelming! My daughter will start kindergarten in the fall. We look forward to six more years at Kemp!
My child started at Kemp after the holiday break. I had my concerns about my child changing schools, but I am so excited to see the amount of student engagement at Kemp. I met Mrs. Mason, the principal and she was so nice to my son and welcomed him to her school. She also checked on him the next two days to make sure he was having a great year. The PTA and teachers are warm, welcoming and always there for the students. I love Kemp and do not every want to leave this school. I wish all principals made students their most important priority.
