- Reviewed by a Parent/Guardian on October 10, 2008 (Rating: 4 / 5) Report As Inappropriate
- Overall, I can't say I'm very impressed with the teaching staff. On the other hand the security is great. I have personally observed the Officers in action. If the schools have to be patrolled South Cobb has some of the best.
