Williams Heights Elementary School
I love this school! My child has recieved a great edu. from every one of these amazing teachers who care so much about their students. Dr.Lancy Brantley is an outstanding principal! My child has been at this school since kindergarten and is now in 5th grade she rarely complains that her day wasn't well. Her grades are mind blowing, all A+'s, and she seems to tell me something new that I never knew everyday!

Williams Heights Elementary School
Williams Heights is an excellent school. My daughter is now in 5th grade. She has gone to Wm Hgts since kindergarten. Every new school year I think there is no way she will get a teacher as good as the one she had last year, but every year she has gotten wonderful teachers who push her to do her best. Dr. Brantley is a great principal. He leads by example. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming by all staff.

Angelina Hamm: I think it's a great school. My son goes there and he is receiving an excellent education. He graduated to the 2nd grade with honors. On the CRCT test he scored above average in math! I give Ms. Roundtree, his teacher, all the credit.
