My daughter, who is now in 3rd grade, has been going to Peterson since kindergarten and she has loved every teacher she has had. They have encouraged, and supported her. We love seeing how excited she is about going to school everyday.

This school is amazing. We didn't realize how good it was until we recently moved and ended up at a new school just a few miles away. Collectively, the teachers & administration are young and energetic. Any complaints or issues are handled quickly and professionally and the education standards are high and progressive. The school does a great job communicating with parents and keeping everyone up to date. We also felt welcomed and encouraged to participate as much as possible.

My boys just started at Peterson this school year, one in 3rd grade and one in kindergarten. They love their teachers. Both my boys are advanced academically and their teachers have been great about keeping them challenged and engaged. One complaint is the size of the kindergarten class with 32 students; even though there are two teachers, it still seems a little much. My kid has done fine in the class, but I wonder if there might be other kids requiring more attention than what they're getting. The teachers are great about bringing in parent volunteers to help out, though. All in all, we've had a good experience this year and looking forward to the next!
