Chatham Elementary School
Heather Hammon: My daughter has special needs and the special needs teacher there Sarah George is amazing and the school staff that work with all the special needs kids are just so dedicated and knowledgable about the kids they are caring for and truly seem to care and want to be there and work with them. To me that is what makes a school especially this one stand out, even the toughest kids to teach are taken care of.
