This school is not a good school to attend I highly suggest forcing your kids online. It is so bad that we have canine units that search our school. There are rats and mice everywhere. There are a lot of fights and i have not learned anything new in my three years of attending. The only good teachers here are Mrs.Trumbull and Mr.Jackson. The kids are such a big distraction and it does not matter but the food is terrible. We have terrible funds. The teachers do not respect the students and expect us to respect them. As an 8th grader i am excited to say that i will be leaving in less than a month. I feel bad for any students that will attend in the future.

It’s never one solid information given correct miscommunication, none of the staff members seem to be on the same page wit communication especially regarding issue or concern the assistant principal is a joke nobody returns phone call or email in a timely manner asking for a meeting wit staff is dam nearly impossible too lazy to meet to resolve problem it’s alway he said she said with these people

Located in the heart of little Paxtang Borough, this school is a perfect fit for parents who want their kids to truly know what it's like to be part of a community. Although not as many students walk to school as when I finished there 15 years ago, there are still plenty of walkers and crossing guards throughout the borough to accompany them on the way. I still know many of the teachers there and wave when I walk by. It's also been provided extra resources to handle a considerable number of ESL learners, so students get to experience learning in a diverse, multicultural environment. Years later, I'm still extremely grateful for the lessons I received inside and outside the classrooms at Paxtang Elementary!
