Marietta Charter School
This school has a personal, small town, community feel. The teachers & staff know all the students & most of the parents by name. The curriculum is excellent. My child's writing & reading skills have greatly excelled since completing 1st grade here.

Marietta Charter School
Charmaine Roberts: This school is an excellent choice when u have no choice of where to send your child to be educated in Marietta city. It is like a family where all the teachers know each child by name even if the child is not one they teach. The children get personal attention and the teachers are flexible with each Childs individuals need and learning style. The hands on centers they use in each class is much more appropriate for our elementary aged kids. When the child needs extra tutoring it is available free of charge like right now the math teacher is volunteering her own time to have Saturday school for extra instruction in math and my fifth grade som makes me take him. When your cold enjoys going to school u know they are doing something right!
