Since 1966, Spalding Drive Elementary School has been serving the children of Sandy Springs. Today, the school operates as a charter school for 350-400 preschool through 5th grade students. The charter status allows Spalding Drive to provide unique opportunities for learning, including a uniform dress code, required parental involvement and technology-based learning. Upper-grade levels get to choose from general music, chorus and guitar classes as part of their curriculum, and the school partners with Arts for Learning at Woodruff Arts Center to provide other cultural opportunities to students. Over 10 school-based activities give children outlets where they can develop personal interests and interact with others who have the same hobbies. Kids can sing in the school’s show choir or get creative in art and photography clubs. Drone and coding clubs let children pursue interests in the latest technology, and the book club encourages a love of reading. Spalding Drive also offers an afterschool enrichment program where kids can get help with homework, enjoy fun exercise programs and participate in hands-on learning sessions. The teachers and staff at Spalding Drive Elementary School are focused on building a stimulating environment for learning and helping their students succeed.
