My husband I messed up. While house hunting last year I was always vigilant in checking the school district first. Then one weekend I didn't check the district's for the houses we were going to see. Fell in love with the house but we're now stuck here. I will definitely be home schooling for middle and we plan to sell this place before my kids reach High school. No way in hell would I send them to Fulton. We thought the Elementary school wouldn't be so bad. Until my then 8 year old daughter came home in the first week in tears. She was shunned and bullied because she's smart and soft spoken. Straight A honor roll student. A group of girls made fun of her and told her they won't be her friend because she's white. Seriously. Up until that point she and her older brother by a year were unaware that racism is a thing. Tried to email and call the teacher about it and never got a response. I'm absolutely disgusted. My two older ones have been going here since April 2017 and my youngest will be starting Kindergarten in August. Hopefully we can move before then.

We have loved sending our son to Springhill. The teachers and staff are very friendly and put the students first. My son has loved everyone of his teachers. I hate that he has to leave next year.

Liek the last commenter, I too attended this school in the 90's. I loved it, and now that I am grown and have children of my own, they love it too. The staff are amazing, and a few of the teachers I loved the most are still there, 20+ years later. With all the extracurricular activites and wellrounded student schedules, Spring Hill is wonderful. I couldn't imagine a better school for children to attend.

I attened this school in 1992 and 1993. I can say now that this is the very best school I've seen, including all those that I cheered at over the years. The principals are involved, and being a good person is greatly encouraged in all the students. The teachers really care that their kids get ahead in life!

My son was enrolled at Hardin Valley due to my work situation. He hated going there...it was a fight every morning. We moved to this area....and he is like a completely different child....At first I didn't think he would adjust or like the school, but he is actually happy to go to school now!! We love it!!!

I admit that was hesitant to send my children here based on the Great Schools rating. We have had only positive experiences at this school and I am so glad that we are part of the Spring Hill family.A few of my favorite things: it's easy to contact teachers, the children get positive reinforcement, the art projects are amazing, the smart boards in the classrooms are cool, and there are sessions for parents so you can learn about what your children are studying. Most importantly, my kids come home happy each day.
