Stay clear from this school!!!!! The best way to picture the dynamics is to compare it to the scene in Mean Girls when the school turns into a jungle. This school is poorly ran, the current principal and higher up staff are a joke for lack of better word. There are fights every single day, horrible behavioral problems with the students and little to no action from staff. My child has had so many issues in this school and the staff is non-responsive until you're pretty much cussing them out. This school is a mess! Unless you have absolutely no other options do not send you child here!

wouldnt wish my worst enemy to go to this school theres like 8 good teachers the teachers use there authority to scare the kids

It used to be a great school and the teachers reflected that. After the CDD and change in admin the school stopped caring about families and kids real needs. Since 2020 the staff that have left continue to reflect the administrations lack of love for the kids and families they are meant to support

Our son was in Kindergarten at this school before we moved back to the east coast and he was so happy and made great strides here. I think the test scores are skewed due to the school being spanish immersion-- when our son entered Kindergarten in Washington DC his teachers were surprised to learn that he could read fluently in spanish, read some in English, write well in spanish, and wrong ok in English. Basically, if these tests were in spanish this school would probably look AMAZING. Now our son has the gift of being totally bilingual. On an interpersonal level, he LOVED every day at the school, loved his teachers, and enjoyed his fun, gently, exciting classroom. I can't say enough good things about Green. Our son was also in the before-school program and WOW. How do these educator keep up this level of warmth and caring for the kids every single day.

My kids have been going to this school since my oldest was in 1st grade. The teachers are excellent and the students all love each other. The parents, students, and teachers at Pilgrim are like family. Finding Pilgrim was the best thing that could have happened to my family.
