Nosotros como padres creemos que los charters school son mas seguros para nuestros hijos, pero estamos muy equivocados, cuando una escuela deja de cumplir las reglas , por mucha cercas, security que tenga no es seguro para los niños, porque el problema es interno, mucho bulling , Despues del cambio de administracion hace unos años la escuela a sido un desastre, la nueva administración no cumple el reglamento escolar, por lo que el bulling se ha convertido en una materia mas, los hijos de los ayudantes escolares y de los padres adinerados están libres de las normas escolares, son libres de cometer cualquier bulling y no son castigados, muchos padres han terminado cambiando a sus hijos de la escuela por este motivo, también la escuela excluyó a los padres de recoger a sus hijos caminando de dentro de la escuela diciendo que por seguridad, no hay nada mas inseguro que un padre recogiendo a su hijo en un carro adentro de la escuela, todos los padres que entraban caminando lo hacían con sus manos vacías, año 22-23 pusieron una ley de soltar a los niños de a pie 15 minutos después de la hora de salida, teniendo a los niños confinados en un pasillo con tremendo calor por 15 minutos por gusto, año 23-24 dejaron salir a los niños a la hora de la salida, cubrieron la reja con una malla negra, ridiculo !, los niños solo podían identificar a sus padres a travez del espacio de la puerta , y este año gracias a dios ya no pertenecemos a esta escuela, muy triste, que el dinero y el interes sea el que marque las reglas, da pena, mucha pena!

I have been a part of the Pinecrest Cove family for many years. I can say the administration, teachers and staff all care about the children and learning. The students are excited to attend and when they leave after the completion of their 8th grade year, students fondly remember their years. PCPA is a very safe school and is very welcoming of the families that join.

Terribly rude teachers, uncontrolled bullying, and a constant sap at money.

Horrible. It’s a facade. Don’t believe their lies.

At my time in Pinecrest Cove, it was mediocre at best. Once I got to middle school, I felt cradled. Almost like a young child. It barely prepared me for High School at ALL. Thank goodness I transferred into a small school for High School because if it was a school with over 2000 kids, I would’ve NOT SURVIVED. In conclusion, the elementary school is good and middle school was HORRIBLE. (PS. my algebra 1 class did NOT prepare me for high school)

My son is in 4th grade and has been at PCPA since Kinder. It is a WONDERFUL school. The curriculum challenges him, the teachers are wonderful and care and maintain great parent contact. I am very happy with the quality of education he is receiving. My daughter will start Kinder here next year as well. I am very proud of PCPA!

Para mi, una de las mejores escuelas actualmente, no he visto problemas entre niños, bulling, droga, los preparan en todos los aspectos de la vida, muy profesionales, para mi es un verdadero placer que mi hijo forme parte de su plantilla, mucha seguridad con los niños. Adoro esa escuela

This school is not what it used to be when it first opened its doors. Some teachers are good, but most of them are not. They don't care to teach. They want to expand the school to fit more students. In the meantime, students are suffering with small classrooms, too many students in the classrooms and no additional assistance is given to those teachers that really care about their student's education. They constantly ask for money. If you have more than one child, good luck. Most parents wonder where all that money is going. Lots of parents are transferring to other schools next year. Kinder teachers, awesome! Only 2 great fourth grade teachers. Too disappointed with the system in the school. Principal is never there. If your child has learning differences, DON'T take them there. They don't have the resources to help out those students. Again, where is all the money going? Instead of expanding the building, hire assistants for the teachers. Classrooms are overcrowded!

I am really happy w/ teachers. My daughter loves it and you can see that she is learning. The only thing that I will say I am not happy about it is the Christmas show. For us 2013 was the second year participating and it was not better. The coaches interruption were not appropriate.. Either they really have to get better or choose not to do it. Which I prefer

The school is great! The teachers are excellent, the environment is very kid-friendly and the students get along. My only complaint is that the school asks for money every few days, so you'd better have your wallets at hand.

Great school and curriculum with excellent teachers. However, Christmas show was not classy due to the coaches skits in between performances. They appeared low class and a bit embarrassing; very inappropriate for a holiday show.

This school the staff and teachers are great. When you have a school that their administration is great and you see they care for the education of the kids it make a huge impact at the end.
