I love my school! I am a 1st grader at PVE. It is a great school. I like all of my teachers. Our school has really nice specials teachers and the best principals. They are all so nice and with all of the students in the school they know everone's name. The school looks big and scary, but once you are inside it is a very nice warm place. Nobody likes going to school every day, but since I have to go to school there is no better school than this. :)

This school is awesome!! PVE is a huge elementary school, but it is divided into sections so that it doesn't seem so overwhelming to the students. The school building is beautiful, has a large library, gym, and cafeteria. My child has some special needs and the staff constantly meets and exceeds my expections in providing special accomodations for my son. They foster an environment of acceptance that has helped my child fit in and make friends. Because of behavioral problems and special needs issues I have gotten to know all of the principals and have been very pleased with how they have handled behavioral issues and discipline. I don't think that there is another school that would accomodate my child like this school has. They took the time to understand how he learns and he is performing well above grade level.

The staff and Principals are very friendly and caring. I have been happy with all the teachers except for 2 out of the many. My children are excelling thanks to the care and determination of their teachers and support staff.
