We had a few nonsensical confrontations that were so minor and, the school made into major issues is the reason behind only the four stars. Nothing serious happens there and you can trust your kid will be safe and well-educated as far as a public school is concerned. The car rider's line is well maintained. The teachers stand outside and wave to the parents. Bus rider's are carefully transported to and from destinations. The school building is secure with locks and intercoms. I wish they had security guards on site. All in all it's one of the city's finest elementary schools.

I appreciate the small class sizes. It feels good knowing my son isn't getting looked over and ignored due to large class sizes. They have faculty that care and want the best for my son. It has been one of the best educational experiences so far for us.

He made my life and every other non white students life a living hell he ran for a Tennessee state representative but he dropped out due to finding out he had committed fraud I found this out from on google search of his name and I guess the school didn't find this out because he was there for the whole year.

When I saw my previous schooling only had 1 rating and it was for 1 star I felt the need to express…read moremy opinion as a graduated student of the Ensworth School. I came to Ensworth last minute to attend high school my freshman year. They welcomed me in with open arms and did not brag at all about their success but let the school and there students speak for itself. Yes, this school is very exclusive Pre 1st - 12th but it isn't for no reason. I cannot even begin to explain how phenomenal the faculty and staff is at Ensworth. I can go back and visit many of my teachers and converse about my endeavors and the growth of the school. They truly care. Also the college counseling department is very helpful with the students college application process. In addition, academically I was more than prepared for college. Anyone to say any different probably comes from a rival school which is natural. As a student I use to hear it all the time. If you do not want to believe me look at where our graduating students are attending school and their accomplishments just in high school. For example, out of my graduating class of 105, 3 students where accepted to Harvard and that is just the beginning. The facts are indisputable.

Horrible administration. The head principal does not talk to parents or students. She pretends to…read morebe busy and never responds to emails, calls, or surveys. Principal disregards a certain population of parents and students specifically. Segregation still exists within the diversity. The good ole boy system still exists in the learning. Only certain students are chosen for scholarship. Typically IB students and there is little diversity in that program. The school has placed more students in this program with little to no support. Look deeper at grades, accomplishments, and scholarships of minority students vs. others. IncentIves for good academics is always school Tshirts. No rewards for honor roll or passing state testing. Most minorities are not recommended for scholarships.

I've lived in the College Grove area for almost 30 years. We moved out this way back in 1982 and…read moremy sister and I attended the old College Grove Elementary, which is now the Senior Center. When they rebuild the school just a little way down the road I was worried that it would loose some of the small town charm the old one had but I was mistaken. When my children were old enough they started at the new school and low and behold two of the teachers who taught when I was there, was still teaching. Long story short, College Grove Elementary School receives top marks each year from the state for the level of education they provide our children. It was a real pleasure as my two went all the way through from Pre-K to fifth grade. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a good school, College Grove is an excellent choice.
