Here are a couple of quotes from the school reviews:

Riverwatch Middle School has exceeded our expectations. The quality of teaching is excellent and the administration is supportive while setting high standards for the students. The children are also a very motivated group that overall have very nice manners and are a well disciplined group. This is a wonderful contrast from the middle school we attended in Fulton county where behavior and discipline were of major issue! We are so glad we moved to this district and have no doubt that are children will be able to obtain an excellent education through highschool. With public schools at this caliber, private school education is not necessary!!! Thanks Riverwatch! Keep up the good work.

The new principal does not communicate with parents as well. As far as teachers. Most are communicating but there are some who love to pile on the work. My daughter is happy there, and is learning, but I am not as pleased as I was last year.
