Greenville County Elementary Schools (Five Forks: house, neighborhoods, relocating to)

[SouthernGirlAgain]

I am relocating to the Greenville area soon. I have two small school age children and am very interested in the elementary schools there.
Does anyone have any information or experience with Fork Shoals Elementary, Oakview Elementary, or Rudolph Gordon.
These are our favorites after touring them, but I'm looking for more personalized knowledge than I can find online.

Thank you in advance.

My grands go to Fork Shoals. They love it, their parents love it and so do we. They are ub 1st and 4th and are excelling. The principle is at every school function and his involvement shows.

I have a child in K-5 at Oakview Elementary. We love the school. We built our house because it was in that district. Now we are waiting to hear what neighborhoods have to switch to the new elementary school they are building on Five Forks Road.

The school has a very good principal. It runs like a very well oiled machine. It has gotten numerous awards for academic achievement. My child has a fantastic teacher.

Did you have any specific questions I could answer?

It seems like most people are happy with their schools in Greenville so I don't think you can go wrong with most schools. Of course there are probably exceptions but I am not familiar enough to name any.
