Tried to register my nibbling here and I met the Receptionist and Principal. They assisted me in my…read moreregistration journey and got me going in the right direction. I had to be pretty persistent with them because I was going off information from our previous school and sometimes things get lost in transferring. The information I had wasn't the most accurate but I think my persistence helped in getting the ball rolling. I didn't see much of the school but it overall seems like a great school and I heard great things about it. I would have loved for my nibbling to go there but we were placed at another school. Lake Wylie Elementary 13620 Erwin Road Charlotte, NC 28273 (Review 607 overall, 151 in 2021)

In March of 2013 CMS announced a $400 million education upgrade and plans to reopen Oakhurst Elementary as a K-8 STEAM partial magnet school in time for the 2015 - 2016 school year. The core focus at the newly branded Oakhurst STEAM Academy will be on Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math... aka STEAM. Since its been given the "partial magnet" status, there is a percentage of first priority available seats to children living within the outlined neighborhood boundaries which include Chantilly, Amity Gardens, Commonwealth Morningside, Echo Hills, and Oakhurst. All other children attending Oakhurst Elementary will have to enter via a lottery. The official school mascot is the Oakhurst Rockets and the school colors will be light blue and light orange. Oakhurst STEAM Academy will feature a Science and Robotic Labs, Lego Walls, a even a 3D Printer!!! The re-opening of Oakhurst Elementary is a very welcome change in the neighborhood and will serve as the staging ground for CMS to improve the education of the next generation of Charlotteans :)

These students (all 503 at last count) score higher than the state average in math and reading compared to comparable statewide schools. The teacher to student ratio is great.

This is a learning center focused on excellence. Grassy Pond elementary is most definitely a credit to Cherokee County, S.C.

He really encouraged everyone, especially dads to get involved at school. We had many special events over the years. From dances, to movie nights, to bingo it was all awesome! The PTA and the Odell families really do a great job working together for the good of the students. I am thankful to the school and to the teachers my son had over those three years. There is a reason everyone wants to be in the Odell school zone. Thanks Odell for the lovely memories!!
