- this school is very cool. but some of the kids can act up. they don't close their mouths and kids are to picky about how much work they have to do. But this school is very wonderful. Mrs.Jowers is a great principal. She really knows how to get students to be quiet. But other than yelling and screaming Pelion school is a very good school. I THINK it is better than white knoll school. My grandma will never let me go there because of what happened to that girl.
