Education Tips for Parents

Has your child ever had a teacher whom he/she just did not like? Do you know how well your child's school test scores did compared to other schools? Are you moving and need to find the best school in your new neighborhood? What to know the average income or violent crime rate in any area? Do you have an upcoming teacher- parent conference? Tips for a successful teacher-parent conference and more...

There are several resources from well experienced and very well educated child psychiatrists and teachers. We've created this page as an aid to help parents with the education of their child(ren). We do not endorse any website or their contents.

Please check out the "Cool Links" that you will find to be very, very useful.

Education Outside of the Classroom

Education does not limit itself to the classroom. Georgia Parks, Family Events, Community Events also compliment our education system. We've selected just a few events or locations to help you enrich your child's life. Whether it's a weekend getaway, family picnic, or winter or summer vacation, we have found these to be great places to visit that are a little off the beaten path.
