Chesterfield Elementary School

I have had two children complete PMES. My husband and I were extremely happy with the curriculum, activities, teachers, principal, and support services. The facility is cheerful, clean, and extremely well maintained. Highly recommend!

This school is discriminatory and dramatic, and based strongly on favortism. Does not know how to deal with children that are not cut from a typical mold, and may need some more creativity in their learning experience. Created insecurities and emotional distress in my child, to the point where I almost considered pursuing legal complaints against the school district. I am so glad that we do not have to deal with this school anymore.

So sorry to hear that this school is being closed; it just demonstrates again that the Diocese rather spend our money(Bishops appeal, parish collections,etc) on ways to close schools instead of supporting them, just like the charade they pulled off in 2005/06. It is really sad for the devoted parents, children and teachers to have to go through this ordeal as it's really traumatizing to the point that counseling should be made available to them. It really shows a lack of leadership and compassion of the Diocese and the lack of support from fellow Catholics which are the root of these closures. (rating is for the Diocese, not the school)
