I can't speak from personal experience (my kids go to Sandy Ridge), but my nieghboor said her 3rd grader liked McKee over Sandy Ridge. Keep in mind that's from a 3rd grader.

We are considering moving to the Ballantyne area with a price range of about $250K-$300K. We are looking for a single family home with a garage. Any suggestions? Also, does anyone have any experience with schools serving kids with learning disabilities? Thanks!

We ended up in eastern Matthews, very close to the YMCA/the end of Providence Plantation...I love it! People kept telling me how great Ballantyne is...we rented there for several months and it was very very nice, so I can't argue with that...it just wasn't for me in terms of buying a home there...I wanted something a little more low key and charming and old school..Ballantyne just struck me as being a bunch of stores, an industrial park, rentals and large new homes one on top of the other....It's lovely to visit but just wan't for me...Best of luck!
