Three of my children attended KES. They all loved their teachers and friends. The staff was always welcoming and warm. They loved my kiddos, and my kiddos loved them.

This primary school is the hidden gem of Kennesaw. I’ve had 2 kids attend and a third soon. The most amazing, organized, caring staff that will bend over backwards to meet and exceed your family’s needs. The ALP program is unbeatable across the county and probably more than that. I wish my kids could stay here through 5th!

From Kindergarten to 2nd grade the teachers and staff have been very helpful in the success of my child. He has learned a lot during these years. Even during lock down the Music Teacher did a sing a long everyday until the end of the school year. The virtual days were very engaging as well. I would recommend any one enrolling their child! They foster a no bullying policy and have ethic goals for the children, which I appreciate. Homework is not usually given and if it is it's not "mandatory". I don't necessarily agree with that as I feel like children should apply what they learn in order to retain however when we do get work home my child is able to explain what he's learned.

My daughter has attended this school for the entire length of grades they teach and is almost finished now. She reads 2 grades above her educational level and does math as a 5th grader even though she is in second grade. So educationally this school is at the very top of the area from personal experience. On top of that the educators here for each year have been personally invested in her from start to finish. The staff to me is the key to the whole thing they encourage there students and help them to grow on every level attributable to the institution and operate as I think a school should operate. Within Cobb county from information I have gotten independently from several differing sources I would rate the school as one of the best in the county for the grades covered. I am not staff and know no one personally who works there other than the ones I have interacted with throughout my daughters educational experience there which would be about 8-10 people all together over 3 years.

This school sets the bar high and helps students achieve great things. The parents are engaged and tons of volunteers are present, and the teachers are first-rate. The PTSA offers many options to parents to support the earning process, and there is genuine concern for each child's development and well-being. The traffic problems are being addressed with new turn lanes from each direction; these are almost complete and should be ready for the new school year. Sadly, the principal is retiring and will be missed for her leadership and positive encouragement.
