I attended Sara Smith in Buckhead. My kids moved into the district and now have kids in the school. When I asked about the system quality 3-4 years ago I got the comment that it was the best school in the system and the parents were active. My advice was not to forget that the City of Atlanta still ran the schools.

Last year the achievement scores for Sarah Smith were just way too high so the district was gerrymandered to bring the scores down. Sort of like an academic "busing" program to achieve mediocraty.

If you live in a city like Atlanta you'd be wise to go private...although even then you have to be careful. Some of these teach the "equal outcome" religion and moral relativism.

BTW I had relatives in Oak Grove and you're absolutely right - it was an excellent school -even then.
