Three schools sit at the center of town next to the public library

Many local students attend Chickamauga Elementary before transitioning to Gordon Lee middle and high schools. All three neighborhood schools are conveniently clustered at the center of town, facilitating an easy drop-off for families with kids of different ages. Gordon Lee High is known for its strong athletics. The Trojan's competitive cheer team placed third in the state last year, and the cross-country and softball students also had outstanding 2022 performances. The public library is next door, a comfortable spot to tackle homework assignments after school.
