Well, my school is great but the teachers aren't as nice as they used to be. In my opinion, they treat some students equally, but sometimes not. What I mean is that they treat some good and some bad.

Wonderful teachers and staff. Throughout one of the most challenging years they’ve stayed at the top of their game.

We moved to this school because of the great reputation of the school district and the special needs program here. The first semester year was fine, but then the school had a major staff change. The special needs teacher meant well, but did not have enough experience to be managing the kids. My son was incredibly unhappy this year. The school was not willing to work with us to help our son and later our son told us he had been constantly bullied. This school was an incredibly negative experience for our family. We have a very dismal view of the entire public education system.

I have a daughter in kindergarten and a son in 2nd grade. I have been very pleased with the teachers, principal and overall staff at the school. They have my daughter reading very well and are pushing my son in all areas. We moved last year from another school here in PTC and while I consider all PTC schools very good, Peeples is exceptional. Get your kids in Little Dribblers. Coach Friday is great!

Outstanding school with very dedicated teachers, administration, and staff. There is also a very high level of parental involvement & PTO support.

We moved my son, who has autism, into this school from out of state mid-year. I have been nothing but disappointed with his teacher who required intensive prompting to communicate properly with us, had one incident requiring us to call a prompt meeting that included the area special ed coordinator and principal and who's overall attitude is more about controlling behavior than using the skill set my son has to help him achieve. As we move into the middle school, I am greatly concerned but ready to take action and move my child out of this program if needed. We came from such a caring, responsive environment for my son that this has been a very trying year. I am hoping its just the teacher and not the entire system that is broken.

PTO does a great job of supporting the students and staff. I personally have a son with Autism and I can't be more happy with the support my son gets. Peeples does a great job of balancing academics, character development and fun. My kids have gone to a number of schools in GA and this is by far the best school and system I have experienced.

Peeples Elementary is a great community of kind and caring teachers, smiling administrative staff, strong and supportive leadership and wonderful parental involvment. Coach Binkley and Coach Friday are extraordinary physical education instructors with hearts of gold who truly want each child to achieve his or her maximum potential. The music teacher Ms. Stadelmeyer goes far beyond expectation and works diligently to ignite a passion for music in her students. The teachers that we have had the privilege of working with thus far are well trained, caring and have adjusted quite well with the growing class sizes so common in many schools. If you are looking for a private school education that not only emphasizes academic excellence but truly strives to develop good character in each student and teach good morals to students, don't pay for a private school, send them to Peeples.

Peeples is a great place! The staff is friendly and works hard to make sure kids are reaching their full potential. When a student struggles, the school provides extra help. The PTO is actively involved in the school.

Wouldn't want to be anywhere else in Fayette county. Great teachers and administrators. My child feels safe and supported. She loves her school and loves going to school. What more can a parent ask for?

We have our two children at Peeples and couldn't be happier! The school is very well run by the administration and all the teachers are dedicated and very accessible. The extra curricular activities offered by the school are outstanding as well. Programs like Little Dribblers, Cultural Arts Week, Juggling Team, Running Club, Walk from School, etc. just to name a few, make a difference and are greatly appreciated!

My school is Peeples Elementary and I believe that the staff is great. They seem to really care for the students. I have been in the school for over 8 years now and things are changing because of BOE changes but the school has maintained a positive atmosphere through it all. I am grateful for the experiences we have had at Peeples.

I think the best praise I can give the school is that I have two young sons who actually ENJOY going! They learn a lot academically, but still have time during recess and specials to make friends. My two children love all the 'specials' classes which include art, music, and PE class.

Awesome! The teachers and administration are so welcoming our children are thrilled to be rockets. We have signature events that everyone looks forward to like Cultural Arts Week, Spring Fling, Chorus concerts, Little Dribblers, Juggling team just to name a few. Mrs. Roberson and Mrs. Blodgett do a great job staying in touch with parents and children on important decisions affecting our school. So thankful for them.

Peeples Elementary School is TERRIFIC! The teachers are always available to students and parents. The principal is always visible in the school. Students who need additional help in reading and math are giving this help in the class as well as in pull out class. The school is very clean and looks brand new.

Peeples Elementary school couldn't have been more welcoming when our county recently closed 5 schools & merged our entire school with theirs. The spirit rings through the halls as well as the friendly staff making sure our kids transition well this school year. The excellent education our kids will receive at Peeples along with making new friends will last a lifetime!

Peeples Elementary that is full of dedicated teachers, staff and parents. Everyone cares very much for each other and teaching the children. There are so many people that give back to the school. Families devote a lot of time and energy to make sure the school had the support out needs to provide an environment that is rich for learning. It is very difficult to find another school where teachers are so dedicated and love being at the school. This is the only school where the teachers are willing to give up items given to them than give up things that are for the students. Parents are also willing to volunteer their time for anything the school needs. The children really love going to school and learning new things. My daughter is always excited about going to school and she hates it when she has to miss a day.
