Teachers are great for the majority, some are not great at all... some counselors are Wonderful but some should not be in the profession and breaks trust of the children. The main leadership is ran in a tyrannical sort of style (from our two years of experience and comments from staff). We took our children out of this counter productive environment. Trust me on this.

Both of my children attend Kincaid and have since Kindergarten (now in 2nd and 5th). The Principal and Asst. Principal are very engaged and effective. The PTA is second to none and has won a national award. We've had great teachers, very devoted to the kids. PE, Art and Music are standouts here as well. The school is one of the smaller ones in Cobb Count and there is really a family feel. Close Quote
