Administration is supportive and concerned for each student. They are always willing to lend a listening ear for parents, staff, and students. Each teacher my child has encountered has helped her growth as a student. I am pleased with my child's experience at Varner.

This is a great school!! We have tried 3 different elementary schools in the area and this is the best one. The teachers, principals and the rest of the people who work there are amazing! :) My kids are gifted learners and this school has helped them excel :) I highly recommend going to this school in Powder Springs .

Our kids were previously at a 10/10 Greatschools in Cobb County and honestly I think the school was better for their growth and achievement, and I think our children are excelling better here. STEM studies available and STEM night was a hit. If your child is on the cusp of Target qualification but doesn't always make it into gifted, Varner is a good choice because they give some high-performing students that don't qualify based on state rules the chance to go to gifted class each week as long as it doesn't interfere with their studies. Elementary school children need a mix of a structured and nurturing environment. The teachers will respond. Just keep on top of your child's achievement since the school isn't an authoritative military style school. They are happy to provide updates beyond progress reports if you care to ask.

My children attended private school before coming to Varner. My husband thought it would be great for the kids to try the neighborhood school. Dare I say he was correct! Our kids are continuing to excel academically. The two teachers my kids have had are Outstanding! The PTA is very active.
