The church is large enough to make an impact in the community but small enough to feel like a family.

Husband and I just moved to town, and we enrolled our son in Piedmont Academy at Piedmont Church…read more The facility is gorgeous, so while I toured the Academy, I inquired about the church - what type of service (contemporary/traditional), music, activities, etc. We came from a young non-denom, very contemporary church south of the city that recently opened the doors at their permanent home, and we loved the passion and authenticity of it. We're looking for that same vibe up here. We finally tried Piedmont yesterday. We went to the 9:30 AM service, and we were warmly greeted by the staff. We needed to check our son into the children's environment, so they walked us to where we needed to be. The church is gorgeous - almost like a mountain lodge. We were surprised to walk in to a sparsely attended service considering the size of the auditorium, and the fact that there are two services (maybe everyone goes to the 11AM?). The music is contemporary, but not as loud as we're used to. Dr. Reighard's message was good, but it was a little long-winded for me (he went over his timer on this particular day). The preaching felt a little more traditional. Our old pastor could speak a compelling message in 30 minutes, so we've gotten to where we really appreciate something concise. After service, they were giving people the opportunity to join life groups, and we noticed there were several tables set up, so they have a large selection of life groups to join. This would be a big plus for us if we were to join. Overall, I have nothing negative to say about our experience. I'm not sure the style of preaching is what we're looking for, but it can be an amazing church home for someone who enjoys something that teeters on the contemporary/traditional line.

This use to be a good school ... Parents think ... the great schools rating is not bad, its in…read morefayette county, it cant be that bad . Trust me it is . Most of the teachers and administrators dont care about the students. The principal is like something you read about in the newspaper and not fit to be anybody's principal or work around anyones kids. I pulled Both my highschoolers from this school and pay for them to go to a private school . They now greatly excel in academics . None of my kids will ever go here again even though this is our assigned highschool . Please, if you are looking for a highschool where your kids can excel and learn life lessons as a teen do not pick this school and honestly you should probably reconsider the county for education .

I have no idea what happened with the other reviewer, Who lives out of district in Riverdale, but I…read moreimagine it was self inflicted. This school is a diverse group of kids and great teachers and administrators. I have had 2 kids go there, the last one is a Senior. The first one is a Sophomore at a Division 1 college in the honors program. Mr. Smith, the Principal cares more about these kids than any principal I have ever seen. They have teachers who come in early and stay late to help the kids who are having trouble with different subjects. I lived in PTC and my first kid went there to the green school. Drugs, clicks, and entitled brats reigned there. Sandy Creek is a great school with great people. No trouble at all. Yes, its diverse, so is the world. Teaches everyone its not about race, color, religion, or political views. They are Patriots and I am proud to be involved. Brian Siefert

I am not sure if it is the change in Administration or what but it is a great change. On last night 2/7/19 we attended Literacy Night and I must say I was very impressed. The Teachers were very engaged and so were the Students and Families that attended. The presentation consisted of the use of graphic organizers and if your group felt the presentation used beautiful language, strong language or persuasive language. There were no right or wrong answers only answers with supporting context. The School should definitely plan more family engaging activities that support academic growth. For the most part the presentation was organized , started on time and ended promptly at 7:00 and provided light refreshments afterwards. I only have 2 critiques. It seems that more Parents attend than what they planned for so there was limited seating. I am not sure if my Son failed to tell us about Literacy Night but I received the invitation the day of the event. But I was able to make arrangements and attend. All the ELA, Reading and Literacy Teachers should've attended to support their actual Students.
