Hand In Hand Primary School

I love love this school.. The teachers and staff are great, warm and very caring! My son loves to go everyday. I appreciate the "hands on" approach to learning and how they still focus on making school fun- not just a testing center! I highly say yes to this school!

My Granddaughter has been in Kindergarten this year at Hand in Hand School. She has liked going to school here and wanted to go to school everyday since the orientation visit. She is learning to read at a surprising rate, her speech has improved, she is happy to go to school, and happy with her teachers. Thank you so much, this is so important to keep our children happy and wanting to go to school and wanting to learn.

I have been very pleased with the school as a whole. My twin boys seem to enjoy it also. They love their teachers and are doing very well.

I can't say enough about this school, it comes high recommended. I drive from Pelham every morning and afternoon so my son can get this wonderful hands on education that Hand In Hand offers. This is hands down the best decision I have made for my child. They are just wrapping up the four week mark, and so much as been taught , but most importantly so much has been learned !

I do not get the parents who are disappointed! I have two degrees in this area and Hand in Hand is an excellent Early Childhood program. The children are learning and enjoying it with hands-on activities. They are getting the foundation of skills needed for reading, writing and problem solving. These children are four and five years old. They should not be sitting in desks doing worksheets! Most importantly, there is no shortage of love for those kids! They are building self confidence and risk taking by creating a secure environment for our kids! My child is loved, learning and loving it! Way to go Hand In Hand!

My family and I love Hand in Hand Elementary. My son has been in Kindergarten this year and has gotten a great start to the rest of his education. Mrs. Linda Ivey has been a true blessing. Keep up the great work!

I love Hand-in-Hand. We moved to this school from another school in North GA. Yes, it is a large school, but the teachers call my child by name (even without a name tag). She gets hugs when she is loaded into the car and I have heard several teachers say, 'love you. Have a great day'. I am looking forward to sending my other children to Hand-in-Hand.

I found this school a huge disappointment. There were many issues that should have been resolved during the first weeks of the school year that continued throughout the year. Quality leadership was missing from this school. I hope that the issues will be resolved for the next school year under new administration. Parent involvement was not a high priority of this school, which I found quite surprising. There are 3,4, & 5 year old children at this school that need all the attention that we can give. The some days that I went to the school, the halls smelled of feces (during the afternoon nap time). I'm not sure why. It may possibly be the sewer treatment plant located near the new school, or the children having accidents during nap.

Hand In Hand is a big school that feels like a small school. All the staff are very friendly to the children. The quality of the education is very good. There are wonderful extracurricular activities for the school as a whole and for the individual classes. Parents are welcome at any time. This is a really great school. The children have a sense of belonging and family with the other students and their teachers. The only bad thing about the school is traffic and parking, but I'm sure they will work on this.
