How do Fulton
Schools in Sandtown compare with nearby Atlanta Schools?
One area of
concern with some parents in Sandtown and West Cascade is the false perception
that the Atlanta Public Schools near us are not as good as the South Fulton
schools in Sandtown their children are currently attending.
Our
children's education is too important to make decisions based on feelings
instead of facts. We extracted the data from the following AJC database
links and compared our three neighborhood Fulton Schools with the three
corresponding Atlanta Schools. Learn the facts and then decide.

knew that Atlanta schools have smaller class sizes and don't suffer from
overcrowding.

Did you
know there were significantly fewer discipline incidents in the Atlanta
schools as well?
