This school cares nothing about their students! We moved out of the area and then back so my son could stay there and they still kicked him out! He is autistic and his doctor told us moving him would be detrimental for his education, but they didn’t want to hear that. I filed an appeal on December 23 and they said they didn’t receive it. I have the cover letter to prove it. They only care about budget and zoning! If I could give negative 100 stars I would!

One of the best Elementary schools in AA County!

My children are currently in 1st and 3rd grades, both enrolled at PES since Kindergarten. They have had amazing teachers and our family has been very happy with how our kids have grown over the last few years.

My son just finished Kindergarten here. He loves school and his teacher and is reading at a high level. He also loves the before care program.

This is a great school...just FYI we got a new principal in the fall of 2015...I know some people were unhappy with the last one (and posted about it).

This was a great school up until a few years ago! The principal at this school is terrible, I'm so glad my last child is going to 6th grade in the fall so we don't have to deal with her anymore. There are two secretaries at the school, the one who sits by the front door right as you walk in is amazing...the other not so much. I think that the teachers are okay, most of the good ones seem to be retiring or getting forced out, which is very unfortunate. I wouldn't be surprised if it had to do with the principal's poor leadership. All in all, its an okay school, but I'm glad to be done with it.

The office staff and the principal are not friendly at all. We were dissapointed with the new principal. The school is always trying to make money and charge students and families to attend most events. The music and drama programs are great! The new music teacher is phenominal! Mr. Myzak is an amazing teacher!
