School Reviews
| 5 Kittystone is probably the best elementary school in the county. The quality of instructors is good. About the only drawback is that since it is in Alabama, physical education is of prime importance, so the arts get pushed to the back. They only get music once every seven days. - Posted by Parent - nwigh |
