Excellent teachers who genuinely care about the kids. Administrators are fair, and there aren't a lot of discipline issues. Students are challenged and work is engaging! My daughter loves her teachers! Close Quote

We just moved here from Orlando, Fl. After getting over the culture shock we are starting to embrace the small town. People are very friendly and are usually willing to help anyway they can. This includes the teachers at Effingham. Uniforms are a must. Kids hate it. It doesn't cut down on the clothing bill as kids still want the Aeropostle or Holister or AF to wear after school. Biggest bummer is the budget cuts that the county and state keep making. No advanced classes this year. They were cut in a budget cut! This is exactly the reason this area lost Boeing to Macon area. Low test scores speak volumes. The problem with average classes is that the teacher is teaching a curriculum that is at 80% of your childs learning capacity. Next year they will be at 100% of 80% of the knowledge that they should have and if they make anything less than a "A" say a "B" then they are at 80% of 80% of the knowledge that they should have. Hopefully 2011-2012 will be different. Close Quote
