Forsyth Elementary is average. Too many worksheets, no gifted program, not much art. Some teachers are well liked and respected, others are not. (Word gets around and parents request specific teachers) Music programs in Fall and Spring are well planned and executed. Might be a little too much 'parental involvement' at this school, in my opinion. All things considered-one of the better schools in the Decatur area.

Forsyth Elementary school has been rebuilt and is absolutely fabulous! Amazing smartboard technology in every room, beautiful spacious areas and library and media centers, it's a wonderful place to send your children! There is also excellent communication between teachers and parents and lots of projects and programs that the students, teachers and parents get involved in together. It's the best school in the greater Decatur area!
