I don't wanna 'dis' anyone's school and I'm not even from Greenville, so what do I know...BUT Taylors Elementary got a 7 out of 10 on greatschools.org and 3 out of 5 on schooldiggers.com. Also test scores aren't impressive. Oakview Elementary got 10 out of 10 on greatschools.org and 5 out of 5 on schooldiggers.com. Test scores are very impressive and they were awarded the Blue Ribbon Award in 2001 and 2006. That's not an easy award to get! Just sayin'...that's the school I'm looking at for my children. Bells Crossing looks impressive as well, good scores and good parent ratings. Good luck. How old are your kids and when are you moving?
I moved to the Oakview Elementary School district because it is suppose to be the best one in the Upstate. I also believe that Bells Crossing is suppose to be very good.
Lovingville, I'm assuming by your member name that you love living in Greenville and you have children in Oakview, yes? So tell us about it! How do you like the school? How old are you kids? And do you like your neighborhood? Are you a stay at home mom? Need as many details as possible, if you don't mind! Thanks!
Just checked, Gateway got 6 out of 10 on greatschools and 2 out of 5 on schooldiggers...not so good. Yes I have better things to do with my time but I don't want to do them right now. I'm obsessed with the prospect of moving to Greenville and I waste a lot of time on the computer....doing 'research'. In case your wondering....
We just relocated this summer to the Five Forks area in Simpsonville and my daughters elementary school is FANTASTIC!! It's Rudolph Gordon it's brand new this is only the second year. The building is gorgeous and the teaches are absolutely fantastic. I love the principal and assistant principal as well. They have great family activities they had a huge fall carnival with rides and auctions and games they also have a goodies for grands and donuts for Dads where the dad's and grandparents come in the morning with the students for treats. Last Friday was the daddy daughter dance which was just great all the girls were so excited. The other thing I liked is the number there are about 500 kids in the school where Bells Crossings has close to 1000 and I see their drop off and pick up lines are crazy. They actually have a police officer to help with the traffic around Bells Crossing. Also our area flows into Riverside Middle which is rated a 9 on great schools and Mauldin High which is rated a 10. So this is a really great area for schools we actually bought our house here because of the schools. Like I said we just moved here this summer so feel free to direct message me if you have any questions. Good Luck!!
