It was outstanding and really helps children promote growth, learning and the social skills they need as they grow as individuals.
Posted by a community member on 6/8/2019The principle of this school is extremely mean to the kids and only cares about the way she looks. The teachers and staff treat all the parents like they are the worst parents in the world. I went there as a kid and was excited that my kids would go there also but I quickly realized that this school
Posted by a parent on 9/5/2013This school is not one I would recommend to anyone that I know. My children go here and live in the district...but if I knew then what I do now about how the school is ran, I would have moved out of the district before my kids started. It seems to me that morals and values are a thing of

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAfter a recent switch from public school to PCES it has been a refreshing new environment for our family. Our kids have embraced the change and are thriving. As a family we have been welcomed for who we are and included in everything. We love the faith based education beginning at the start of their day as an entire student body, regular religion class, prayers before and after lunch and end of the day prayers. In a few short months we have seen their faith strengthen and their knowledge grow tremendously. The robotics club was a unique and fun new club they joined. Wearing uniforms has simplified our morning routine and we all love it. There is high parent involvement with many different opportunities available to be apart of. The positive of that is it brings families and kids closer uniting the school community. The kids learn cursive starting in 2nd grade which is a missed opportunity is most schools these days. The academics can be somewhat individually tailored to where each student is at because of the small class sizes which is a huge benefit. Please consider PCES when making a school choice. You won't be disappointed.Parent Review2y ago
