My kids have had the best teachers they are amazing at teaching them and help them throughout the school year but the school doesn't even care about bullying it seems most of the time if there is a incident they won't call you to let you know what happened you'll only find out when your child comes home and tells you if you call them up to speak to someone about it they'll just tell you we'll look into and never actually do anything

I do not recommend this school for children with disabilities. They do not follow the law and rules for an IEP or 504. They refuse to acknowledge and apply the proper diagnosis given the child and learn about the disability and how if affects the child (ie, sensory overload, social skills, ) There has been problems and investigation into teachers and principal for improper restraint and failure to report these incidents to the proper school board/authorities. Parents of children with disabilities have to fight and keep on top of the school just to have their children educated appropriately.No assistance from the school in getting children evaluated, they would just as soon allow these children to fail.

We has been at this school for almost 5 years now and have nothing but good things to say about it. The school hosts plenty of activities for families to go to throughout the year. The staff and teachers have all been wonderful. I had a concern once with my son and another student and the staff dealt with it quickly and the vice principal called to let me know how the situation was handled and to let me know I could contact her any time.

This school is great. Events are well organized. There is no lack in volunteers and parent interest. Students strive for success with the PAWS motto. P (for proud we are) A (for always kind) Working hard and staying safe at P.E.S you'll find. :)

Pre K program is excellent. My oldest also attended PES and now my second child is attending PES. No issues, the teachers we have experienced have all been wonderful.
