Seems to be an interesting and innovative school, but honesty a bunch of mismanaged crooks. Look at your contracts as if general consul.

Terrible School. No one should have to suffer what I went though at Sandy Springs. My friends were constantly bullied and harassed. There was no action against these terrible people. I was so happy when it almost got shut down. This school is just the worst, I left it in 10th grade. I went to The Field School, I recommend the Field School a lot but Sandy Springs, no. If you are thinking of bringing your child to Sandy Springs. THIS IS YOUR WARNING. DO NOT GO TO SANDY SPRINGS YOU WILL REGRET IT.

I loved my time at Sandy Spring Friends School! I have been here since 6th grade and the community and curriculum are both wonderful. The only downside is there aren't as many people at the school though it serves to make the school a more tight knit community!

I see the care they put...

With the incredible emotional and academic support of the entire SSFS school, our son is now happier than ever...

From the moment I set foot on the SSFS campus for a tour, I knew this was the school for our child. The "vibe" was like nothing I had experienced on any other school tour. The campus is stunning and allows the students to play and relax in nature daily. The teachers and staff are second to none - ca...

We are a new family to SSFS and could not be more thrilled with our experience. My daughter (who is now a 10th grader) was very apprehensive about changing schools. I am elated to share that my daughter and our entire family has had the most wonderful experience ever since moving over to SSFS. The s...
