Friendship Elementary School

My family has been at PGE for 8 years. My oldest two have gone all the way through K-4 and have moved on and my youngest is currently in 1st grade. I can truly say that I could not dream of a better environment for my kids. This school is filled with incredible staff and teachers, who care about every student. The morale is very high, you can tell there is a positive vibe from leadership all the way down. The PTA is active and there is a good level of parent involvement. Everyone works together here and I am grateful for the foundation my kids have for the rest of their lives thanks to everyone here who has invested in them.

Thank you, Principal Hurst for making every student, their parents, teachers feel special, for caring and going above and beyond in every way possible to help the child learn. Every teacher and admin here are so respectful, helpful and kind. I am so happy my children learn about honorable character values from this school

Too many gays especially adeline and Rhylee in 4th grade. Anne Ndecky is the only normal person there.

Teachers are helpful and kind with our students

My son is about to graduate from Kindergarten here, and I couldn't have wished for a better start to his school journey. The staff and teachers at BPE have a positive energy that is truly contagious. I’m especially impressed with the academic progress he’s made; he learned to read, perform simple addition/subtraction, and count to 100—all with minimal homework. My only minor critique is that I’d love to see more robust sports and music programs in the future. Overall, a fantastic experience!
