Absolutely adore this school. Teachers are all phenomenal - warm, welcoming. Administration and front office are fabulous. Well funded with title 1, and funds are used properly. Kids truly are benefiting. They have smart boards in every classroom. Brand new playground equipment. Food is terrible - but that’s on thurston county. The school is amazing though. Positive learning environment and happy kids.

Our two children have attended Pleasant Glade for the last two years and I have nothing but positive things to say! Both the bus pickup and parent drop off systems are efficient and work well. All of the teachers have been amazing, the school administration is great and helpful.

Pleasant Glade has a lot of challenges facing it. The needs of the students are great and diverse and it is undersupported by the district when it comes to staffing and physical resources. Considering these factors the teachers work twice as hard as many in wealthier areas and truly care about the community they serve.

Extremely disappointed with this school. My son is in 5th grade and supposed to be doing 6th grade math. It took us contacting the school board and 3 months to get something done. The principal had denied any special accomodations for him until we contaced the Director of Math at the district office directly. Only now, with a quater of the school year done is he taking a 6th grade math glass at Chinook. Send your kids to Lakes.

My child has learned nothing at this school. We came from GA where he was advanced and now he is behind. They don't focus on the three R's enough. I think education got lost and America needs to go back to the basics of learning. Math and Reading are the most important subjects. If time allows then teach culture. Culture is not that important. The kids will learn culture as they grow up just like we did.
