Tucker Elementary School
I am a grand parent of a third grader who we now have custody of. Due to some terrible circumstances, our grand child had missed out on some very vital basic education, but moving to Houston County and enrolling our grand child at Tucker Elementary was the best thing that we ever did! His grades and behavior has changed so much for the better! I thank God every day for my grand child's teachers and His new school! They have made such a positive impact on my grand child's life! Teachers and staff of Tucker Elementary, you have made a great difference in a young life that before looked pretty bleak. Please keep up the great work...for our children's future! Thank you!

Norma Sizemore: I am very pleases that the teachers have real compassion for the students needs.
Last year a third grade teacher went beyond the program for her students to improve their reading skills and rewarded them with prizes to boost their self-esteem. The skills and love for reading gave them a whole-life improvement.
