Ours is a unique learning environment that fosters curiosity and creativity in your child. At PES, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We celebrate individual strengths and talents to help students find a lifelong love of learning and a path that amplifies their unique gifts.

PES welcomed a 1st grade student who served as acting Head of School yesterday, with exciting proclamations of a uniform-free day, extra recess, special morning announcements, pizza for lunch, and even a schoolwide surprise treat! “Be HOS for the Day” is one of many popular annual auction offerings that families can bid on for their students. Great leaders learn by example — huge shoutout to our HOS Kerin Hughes for making this experience so memorable & rewarding for our student winner. #pesteacherstuesday #pesauction2024
