"You can't find a better and more intimate school! I have 2 children there and have been so impressed with the love my children feel here. Faculty, staff, and community members go above and beyond to ensure my children love learning! Also enrichment activities such as STEM Scouts, Student TV News Crew, 4H, Student Counsel, Running Club, and other after school programs give kids additional opportunities to grow academically. This school is growing and bringing pride to the South Knoxville Community."

"The staff at this school is amazing. I transferred my children from Dogwood because the student teacher ratio was so high at Dogwood. SKES has very small classes and excellent staff. The teachers all know every kid and each ones temperament. When we came, Dr. Nicely was not the principal, but she has made the school so much warmer and has brought many programs and recognition to this tiny school nestled by the river! We love SKES!"
