Panther Run Elementary School

The previous principal was very involved, warm, amazing and created a positive and thriving environment that motivated and supported children and teachers and families in such a positive manner and welcomed diversity in so many ways. Students were really encouraged to "be the 3", helping them to take pride in themselves, and encouraged them to act morally with all others- which alleviated bullying, discrimination and reckless behaviors. Now it seems kids feel a little liberated to act out without repercussions or feeling bad about it- lacking moral compass at school. Gifted program was great before- a lot of engaging truly gifted projects and truly gifted learning, some teachers retired, and now kids are pressured on test scores- so more focus on academics testing. Truly gifted students need all different types of support. Kids should have a fun learning environment in elementary with innovative approaches to teaching. This is still a very good school, but a lot of parents I know applied for other school options this upcoming year. Hopefully the new principal can settle in and continue to extend warmth and care and an increased positive involvement for all- teachers, students, families- to continue this school's legacy!
