GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Flowertown elementary was not a good experience for us. A lot of behavioral issues in the classroom that aren't handled appropriately, if at all. Bullying was an issue as well. Many of the good staff have left and the communication between teacher and parent was poor.

My children have been going here for two years and they love it. I have been able to see dramatic increase in all of their reading math and over all personalities since they started here. The teachers, principle, and office staff have treated us with so much respect and even friendship. They also do a lot of family activities and even a school dance. I love this school.
