School Overview

Eatonton sits in the heart of Georgia's Lake Country, a quiet small-town community best known as the birthplace of Alice Walker and home to the famous Uncle Remus Museum. Putnam County Elementary lands right around the middle of the pack statewide, with a noticeable strength in science and math that gives families reason for optimism, even as English scores leave some room to grow. Families drawn to a tight-knit, rural setting where teachers tend to know every kid by name — and where the lake lifestyle is just part of the everyday backdrop — will find this school a comfortable fit for their younger children.
