I currently have 3 children who attend Coosa Valley and another who has moved up. This school is hands down the absolute best within the area. It is a home and a safe haven for children. Each of my children have had different needs/challenges and this school/staff has helped to identify needs and formulated a specific plan to assist. My son started here with the Pre-K program years ago and Jennifer Hannah set aside time each day (and sometimes nights) to pour into myself and husband to assure we had the correct tools to help manage his new diagnosis. During a time when most parents feel alone, she helped reassure and encourage us. The safety of the school is taken seriously and I trust each and every teacher with my children wholeheartedly.

I have never felt my son was not safe and cared about while here. The staff goes above and beyond to show how much they care and love your child. They protect them and treat them as their own. As a parent, I never feel left out. I’m always made aware of anything going on. They have expanded the school and took extra precautions by adding a storm shelter. This is definitely the best elementary school in our area.

CVES is amazing. I have a child in K5 and 3rd grade. The faculty and staff love the kids. They provide a learning environment to ensure the success of every student. Our family is blessed to be a part of the Coosa family!

Unsatisfactory. I have seen my five year old granddaughter change from a happy little girl into someone I don’t even recognize.

I have two (2) children that have gone to CVES since Kindergarten, one (1) is currently in the third (3rd) grade and the other in the fourth (4th). I would not want them to attend any other elementary school.

I love CVES! We've only been to Coosa for a year and a half and I will disagree with those that think this school has problems and clicks. All of the teachers and staff including the janitors love the children and the children love coming to CVES! If you are concerned about the negative reviews just come into the school and voice your concerns and you will be heard I can guarantee it. All of the office staff, teachers, media specialist, cafeteria staff and cleaning crew know your child by name and make them feel like they are one big family. The teachers work really hard and are there for the children even if you child is having difficulty with a certain subject. Here is the thing, the parents need to be as involved in their childrens education as the teachers at CVES are. I know work schedules may make it difficult to come to the school and volunteer but I promise you this, if you do this for yourself and your child your negative outlook will become a positive one. I have two children at CVES and they want to go on Saturday and Sunday which they didn't want to do at their other schools.

I am so impressed with CVES. This school has felt like a second home for my shy children. When we decided to purchase another home last Fall, leaving this school district was not an option. I was amazed as the year progressed at how much my child learned. Every employee knows my children by name and has been more than attentive to their needs. A big thanks to the teachers and staff for helping make my children look forward to going to school every day!
