Default Doraville Schools

My wife's grandma has a house in Doraville that we can live in if we want to move to the Atlanta area. We have a 1 year old, so we're concerned w/the schools for the future if we decide to live in her house long term. It's zoned for Evansdale Elementary - Henderson Mill Middle - Lakeside High. Are these schools pretty good for the area?

The location is terrific w/access to I-85 and I-285, but we were also wondering about the safety of that particular area. It's near Henderson Mill Rd. and Evans Rd. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I can't comment on the area, because I live in a different area right now. However, where I am the middle school and high school are the same. From what I have heard the middle school is really good. The high school is also supposed to be one of the best in the state. The area I am in now is nice, very diverse but I feel very safe in it. If I were you, I would just come down to Atlanta and spend a few days or a weekend in the house and see how you feel about the neighborhood.

I went to college at Tech, but didn't spend much time in that area. I suppose if I felt safe on North Ave, then I would feel safe up there =) I've read other good comments about Henderson Middle and Lakeside High (my mother in law actually went to those schools too), but I haven't heard much about Evansdale Elementary. Anyone have experience w/this school?

Evansdale is fine -- one of the better schools in DeKalb...
