Former Resident: Blountville is a community worth keeping, it still has that feeling of an older community where you know about everyone at the grocery store, but also has easy access to three cities for shopping, nightlife, or catching a NASCAR race. It is a community where the gentlemen still get their hair cut at the barber, you know all of your neighbors, and kids still play outside. The people that live in this community tend to stay and generations graduate from the same high school. It is a feeling that doesn't exist many places any more, but when your here you will know it's home.... Read 10 reviews

Parent: As the parent of two children in the lower school, I am extremely pleased with SSSAS. The Early Saints teachers make each day engaging for my 3-year-old. The monthly units the ES learn have prompted my son to apply what he’s learned to the world around him (the food unit they completed prompts a nightly discussion about which foods on his plate are muscle foods, brain foods, etc.). His teachers started a recent parent conference with 3 very specific adjectives to describe my son and given the examples they gave me, it is clear that really understand him as a whole child. My experiences with JK and K were also nothing short of fantastic; even during the pandemic the teachers were able to connect with my son. The K and 1st grade teachers have also provided my son a solid educational foundation; they have identified his strengths and given additional challenging work so that he hasn’t been bored. Any issues I’ve had have been quickly and appropriately addressed by his teachers.... Read 133 reviews

Current Resident: Every town is bound to have it's positives and negatives. The town of Mount Carmel has many positives including: a convenient location to the interstate and close access to convenient stores and pharmacies. A few of the negatives include poor city management and higher taxes. The town of Mount Carmel has a large community involvement and have block parties every year. There are numerous Recreational leagues for your children. The elementary school is ranked higher than nearby schools and the high school is less than 15 minutes away. The crime rate is lower in Mount Carmel than in other parts of the county. In spite of some of the negatives, I would not want to live anywhere other than Mount Carmel due, in part, to the quicker access to nearby towns.... Read 16 reviews

Current Resident: Friendly people, pleasant weather and a nice small town feel. There are a number of different neighborhoods ranging from trailer parks to multi-acre estates. There is something for everyone. There is an active senior center, small library and shopping for the necessities. Bigger towns (Kingsport, Johnson City and Bristol) are a short drive should you be looking for more shopping opportunities. Great views of Bays Mountain and lots of wildlife to keep things interesting. Definite family area. There is not much in the way of nightlife if that is your thing... Read 20 reviews

Current Resident: Abingdon is a very small town in southwest Virginia, with many activities and a lot of local charm. There are many festivals held here annually, and there are several cute little coffee shops and restaurants that just opened up. The historic downtown area of Abingdon is extremely beautiful, and is great for a mid-day walk. The locals are very friendly and helpful, and the business owners are very talented artists and kind people. If you ever get to visit, I would recommend visiting the downtown area.

Current Resident: I'm proud to call Bluff City my hometown. I've never lived anywhere else. While it's not quite as backwards as Mayberry, things move at a much slower pace than many other places in the country. Favorite summer pastimes here are going to the lake, fishing, and hanging out downtown. There are definitely areas that need improvement and I hope that someday I will be instrumental in the progress. I would be happy to raise my own family here someday.... Read 7 reviews

Current Resident: I have lived in many states and many different cities within those states. I have seen small towns barely able to get by, and I have seen some small towns provide an environment of home and peace. Greeneville, TN has an overall aroma of peace and unity. Every single individual you meet is smiling with a caring nature to their presence. From hospital employees to middle school teachers to Walmart cashiers, they all carry themselves with confidence and ease that shows me how great a town can thrive when all the citizens are open to newcomers, are open to new experiences, and are closed off to hateful words and actions. I could see myself staying here long term.... Read 42 reviews

Current Resident: Walking around in down town Bristol is one of the best experiences I have as a child. There are several antique stores that will make parents and grandparents say "back in my day..." providing an opportunity make new memories. On top of that there are small family owned stores with employees who are eager to lend a helping hand anyway possible. There are dinners up and down Bristol that are worth stoping for a bite. I highly recommend an old fashion candy store called The Southern Churn with the best ice cream and fudge. The scenery is beautiful in down town Bristol, inside stores there is a hint of the 'old times' with rustic decor. All over the streets there are several paintings and areas that is perfect for taking pictures to remember the good times.... Read 42 reviews

Parent: As a teacher who has taught 12 years in a public school setting, I would have never imagined choosing private school for my sons. After a tough year in kindergarten, my oldest son struggled and didn’t show much academic progress due to large class size. After much thought, I realized that a smaller class size is what he needed to cultivate the best learning environment. After researching all the available private schools here in Southern Frederick County, I was dismayed by the few options nearby. After thoughtful consideration, Barnesville fulfilled all of my expectations as a teacher parent. It provided small class sizes, a great amount of time spent outside, many cross-curricular learning opportunities, and a strong community. The teachers are extra caring and it was evident during our time distance learning. If you are looking for a school that offers meaningful relationships where your child is given many opportunities to grow and learn, Barnesville is for you!... Read 13 reviews
