The office staff at this school are very rude and unprofessional.

Teacher's are wonderful. The school in all if horrible though. Both my children are over achievers, but are being held back due to lack of test scores & student underachievement/ distraction in the classroom.

I absolutely love this school. Coming from another elementary school in our area for grades K-1, we have spent grades 2-3 at Wrightsboro. My son has experienced very nurturing, yet very aware teachers that have understood and worked with his severe ADHD. He has done a full turn around and instead of possibly having to have an IEP, he is now proudly an AIG student that is truly proud. I thank these teachers for working with him and listening to me and not pointing out the negatives with him. He made straight A's last year and loves his school. When we have seen Ms. Hall out in public, she always stops to speak and has a kind word to say. I really love the neighborhool aspect of it and proud to be a part of the "Wrightsboro Coolcats!"
