Swainsboro Elementary School

The school is impressively terrible. There is no discipline, and as a result, no teaching and learning. The principal has no clue what he is doing. Guess he thinks that hanging out by the entrance door in the mornings is where it all ends. When a child comes home crying every day and the most the bully gets is a FIVE minutes time-out, there is a problem. Academics- I don't have to say much. Look at CRCT results (and don't even start telling me that they are not representative; sure they are). Parental involvement? What's that? This school have not hears about "parent-teacher conferences". Everywhere else these are mandatory, twice a year events. If you have to move to another state or a bigger city, you will be shocked at how far behind your start honor roll kid is, compared to the other kids at a new school. If you stay in Swainsboro - well, I am sorry!

I am a retired teacher who taught at SES for a total of 14 years. It is the best school on Tiger Trail. Great faculty and staff, dedicated administrators, and young minds that are seeking sucess.
