My daughter attended RCPS at the beginning of this year for Kindergerten. We had some concerns as the school year progressed. We switched our daughter to Peachtree Academy Conyers Campus mid year. We expected there to be some hiccups as change can be tough on kids. NOT ONE! My daughter comes home excited about school and now is talking about her teachers and what she is learning. She is thriving socially, coming home with stories of her friends and their favorite times together. Of all of our hopes, the one that I can honestly say has made the BIGGEST difference for us is that we have become a

Safeguards are in place and utilized. The parents are consistently updated as to the progress of the child. Thumbs up to Peachtree Prep.

My daughter attended Peachtree Academy from 6th grade until the graduating class of 2018. Peachtree Academy is family and will always be family. Her teachers and staff were awesome. I can honestly say that Eriauna gained at least two or three mothers and Coach Ken as her coach father. Thanks Peachtree Academy!

I think Peachtree Academy is a great school. They offer an amazing curriculum and an outstanding athletic program. The fine arts department offers the students a great opportunity to perform on stage during the weekly chapel gatherings and often go into the community to perform at different events. The children team up together once a year for a day of community service (what they call Panther Day) where they can be found at local nursing homes or parks working or cleaning. Peachtree has an amazing Head Master, Robin Barnes, who always manages to pull together a fabulous Relay for Life and Career
