Palm Bay Elementary is an AWESOME school. My daughter has been going here since Pre-K and she is now in 3rd grade. Every year she has been blessed with amazing teachers that give 150%. The principal Mrs. Migliori makes our children her #1 priority. The whole staff is all about the children! My daughter has been in Mrs. Miller's Gifted program going on 3 years now and it has been a very rewarding experience. Thank you our Palm Bay Elementary Family!!!
This school has an amazing staff who care about the students. There are many opportunities for students to enrich their education. Fantastic!
My daughter was in the VPK program this year and had Mrs. Turner as her teacher. I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful she was with all the children, but with Alexis in particular. I have nothing but good feelings about sending her back for kindergarten, and will definitely recommend PBE to anyone who asks!
Palm Bay Elementary offers so many fun a nd wonderful learning activities for kids. For example, they have a full science lab that is run by Mrs. Cook the coolest science teacher ever. They have after school clubs they are so inviting to the children. Parents are always welcome into the school and encouraged to volunteer and get involved. Thank you PBE Lil' Pirates for all you do...PBE rocks!
Both of my children are receiving an outstanding education at Palm Bay Elementary. The teachers and administration are awesome.
I am fairly disappointed with this school. My son has been going here for 2 years and is failing math for the second time. He was enrolled in summer school because of his performance (they do not cover math in summer school) and was informed 2 days into it that he was not allowed to stay because of the scores he had received on an end of year SOAR test (they were too high). What is more important test scores or academic performance? His teacher, is difficult at best and really not interested in the kids that fall outside of his program. This leads me to ask the question: is he there for a pay check or is he there as a teacher of children? Kids are not robots, nor machines. They all learn differently and cannot be expected to be stimulated the same way. A perfect example of
Palm Bay Elementary is a great place for any kid...the Principal Dr. B is just awesome. No nonsense. She runs a tight ship and she is respectful to parents no matter who they are. She has been there four years and in that time the school has gone from a dump to spotless. The office staff are kind and helpful, always with a smile for everyone. My son's teacher, Ms. Marmo, is great and really cares for the kids. Some of the teachers are not as nice. They act like they are too good for the kids or the parents. All my kids have gone there, and those teachers who have been there a long time still act like the parents are all trash. They've been teaching too long and it shows...kids are still kids and they should not be a chore. The newer teachers seem to care a lot more.
I feel the need to be completely honest about my experience with Palmbay Elementary inorder to assure that parents/children make the appropriate decision in order to obtain a successfully education.I give Palmbay Elementary the lowest score of all schools. A majority of the staff fail to help struggling children,Make's poor decisions,fail's to provide important information and Yes many are very rude. This does not apply to a hand full of teachers.I also agree that the school is too accessible. There are 8 exits and entrances which remain open during school hour with no supervision. If you are looking for a positive environment for you children Palmbay elementary is not the place.
I love Palm Bay Elementary. The school is great. I moved and put my kids in a private school and my kids miss Palm Bay to so I switched them back. They were very helpful with my kids and was on target with everything. I would recommend this school to anyone because they are a wonderful school.
P.B.E is a great school. The principal and staff are all amazing. My children enjoy every day at P.B.E. I give it an A +
