My children have attended Eastmorland for a number of years, and I've seen many changes in teachers, principals, and building improvements. Each and every teacher my children have had were fabulous. The current principal is friendly, professional, and quite frankly, does her job well. True, if your child is late often, you will be reported for truancy court, but that's the district's policy. Get yourself together and leave the house a couple minutes early, and you'll have no problem. If a meeting is needed with a teacher or principal, they're always scheduled quickly. Phone calls and emails are returned promptly, as well. COURTESY and RESPECT, both things that are taught, valued, and encouraged at Eastmorland, go a long ways in how people will be treated. I'm glad that my children have learned these lifeskills from the wonderful staff at Eastmorland, because, obviously, some people are lacking them.

Eastmorland is a wonderful school! It is a friendly, non threatening environment! The principal is courteous and professional. She goes above and beyond making sure things run smoothly, always putting children first! The teachers and staff are caring, and work hard to meet the needs of the students! We LOVE the fun activities, events, and parent nights at Eastmorland! There is always something to look forward to! Our daughter is excited to go to school each day! She is learning so much! My son will be attending Eastmorland next school year, and eagerly looks forward to being there every day! My husband and I feel very fortunate to be able to send our children to this great school!

Eastmorlan elementary is one of the worst schools to send your children. The Principal is so unprofessional and won't take any parents phone calls. If you do happen to get her on the phone, she will either hang up on you or report your personal conversation with her(parent/principal conversation) to a juvenile officer. Then the Deputy juvenile officer will contact you and threaten to take your child away! I have never been treated so poorly in my life. I am counting on this school to care for my child for the 7 hrs he is there. Teachers allow bullying to go on, and if a child tries to tell a teacher, the teachers get annoyed and tell them to "stop tattling." Also Parents! if your child is a minute late 5 times, you are reported to jasper county juvenile office. The school will not call and talk to you about anything, They won't agree to sit down meetings, they treat parents and children horrible. If you love your child, don't allow them to go to this school. I ended up taking my child out in the first grade and transferring him to another school.

I love this school! My family and I were recently injured in a tornado. The staff at the school visited my daughter in the hospital everyday for over 2 weeks! Their support is amazing!

The teachers really care about the kids at this school. The building and grounds are really nice and clean and the classrooms are bright and cheery. The kids move on to middle school ahead of the game academically.
