I went to this school to do a Tennis Assembly with all grades and had the best time with the kids. I found the kids happy, polite and excited about learning, several teachers dropped in to see what the excitement was all about, and they were one of the most friendliest and warm teachers ever. Felt right at home with them as they were very friendly. The Principal I met years ago, she was great then and the same now. She's a great lady. The asst. principal was so warm and friendly and so excited for the kids to get the experience of learning a few things about tennis. We are coming back to them in the Fall with an afterschool program for the kids. I fell in love with that school and the staff, including the office personnel. They were great to work with, and getting to know them was a pleasure. The PE coach was great and had a good relationship with the kids and a lot of respect given both ways. The kids showed a lot of respect to my team that came with me. I/we can't wait until the Fall to start us on a journey to building a great relationship with everyone at this school.

Pershing has a new principal. She is starting her third year. She has made an amazing improvement in the school. Both the staff and the parents respect her very much. The environment is always positive and the kids are excelling both in grades and in outside activities. You could not pay for a better education.
