Painted Stone Elementary School

I went to Painted Stone from K-5 and I LOVED IT! The teachers had their days ~ I would say that it is the best school that is in Shelby County, after all - they do have the highest CATS scores! "PSE is the PLACE TO BE!" That is the motto of PSE ~ and it is true! My second grade teacher inspired me to become a teacher!

Staff members at Painted Stone are wonderful! Everyone is there for the right reason and that is to help children learn and succeed. My son is in 1st grade and I can't imagine him being at any other school. I love PSES!!

PSE has a great attitude. You feel it when you walk in the door. The staff, teachers and students are all happy to be there. We just recieved notification that we scored the highest in the district on our standardized tests last year. This school started strong and has continued to improve in every aspect through the years.

I am so impressed with Painted Stone Elementary and ahwat a strong interest they have taken in my children. The teachers and administration really show they care about my children academically, socially, and emotionally. They call when my children are absent, work my children if they are stuggling or they provide enrichment. The new motto for Painted Stone is 'PSE is the place to be!' ...and it truly is...for students and adults!!

Painted Stone is the best place to be. We have excellent leadership and I am proud to be a teacher here. I have seen this school grow into an optimal learning enviornment for students and teachers alike. PSE is very focused on student achievement but, doesn't forget to take care of the whole child. I want my own children to go here and experience what we have to offer!

This is a school with a great deal of pride and many, many talented teachers. I have been extraordinarily impressed by this group of professionals. You cannot do better than this school for any child of any background!

My daughter has attended this school for 5 years. I have been consistently impressed with the level of learning that is going on within the school. The new principal, Mrs. Shipley, is passionate about all students reaching their potential. Upon meeting her, it is clear that she isn't just 'talking the talk.' I feel fortunate to be a part of this school.

Painted Stone Elementary has once again shown their excellence as a school! The KCCT scores were awesome for the 2008 school year scores! Going into the building makes one aware of the wonderful learning environment that exist in the school as a whole and in each and every classroom. Staff and students are wonderful!
