About The School
Rockbridge Elementary School is located in Stone Mountain, Georgia, just east of the capital city, Atlanta. The school is nestled in a wooded subdivision near the intersection of Rockbridge and Hairston roads. The majority of students live in the single family homes surrounding the school.
The school has twenty-six regular classrooms ranging from Pre-K to 5th grade, with additional programs for Mildly Intellectual Disability, Severe and Profound Intellectual Disability, Interrelated Special Education, and English for Speakers of Other Languages. Resources at the school include a networked computer lab, library media center, band and strings classes, music education, Discovery classes, guidance services, health and physical education classes, Title I Reading, speech and language, and the Early Intervention Program.
Rockbridge faculty, students, parents and community members participate in the decision-making process through the Building Leadership Team, the PTA, the School Improvement Team, and the School Council. The school receives additional support from four community Partners in Education: Chevron Incorporated, Kim Brothers Tae Kwon Do Academy, daVido's Pizza, and Wal-Mart. Parents are encouraged to serve as volunteers to assist teachers with clerical tasks and tutoring students.
The school motto is: "Rocket to Success With A Can-Do Attitude", and the students are encouraged to do their best in their academics as well as their activities at Rockbridge.
