6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy experience at this school was terrible. The favoritism is bad and the bullying is bad too. The teachers favoritism the kids that have pto parents and there was some teachers that rlly do not teach well here. The kids are very mean They would fight each other and call others names, and even i was being called names from the (popular kids) plus the principle is not even good. And when we graduated there was a slide show that had repetitive pictures of the pto parents kids. And didn’t let any other parnets know abt the slideshow nor let them send photos or use photos of them in the year book/slide show. Plus there’s one of the special education teachers that should be fired bc they were yelling at autistic kids that weren’t even doing anything bad. if you don’t want your kid getting bullied and want them to actually be taught well I would DEFINITELY not recommend this school and even the town sucks rlly.Student Review3w ago - Preston Veterans' Memorial School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe love PVMS. My 10 year old has loved all of his teachers over the years. The principal is wonderful. And our youngest, who has speech development issues, has recieved amazing help and support from the school.Parent Review5y ago
