Piney Point Elementary School

I have to say I totally disagree with the last few reviews. I also just moved out of state and this is my children's first year in Piney Point elementary and I felt welcomed the minute I walked in the office to enroll my children. I have no complaints so far, especially since when I first moved to the area my kids attended Carver elementary school in lexington park and recieved poor uncooperative treatment. My children also love this school as well. No complaints so far:-)

I have to agree with the last two reveiws.. the teachers are absolutely amazing at PPES but the staff in the front office is incredibly rude.. My daughter has attented Piney Point for two years and I have yet to recieve a welcoming greeting from the staff here. They are what keep me from volunteering even though I used to volunteer all the time at her previous elementary school all the time. We will be moving over the summer however so we will thankfully be at a new school next year.

I wish I had heeded the previous review before we moved into this school district. The administration was completely unprofessional. The principal was rude and dismissive to our concerns as parents coming from out of state. Her attitude set the tone for the whole school. We have never been treated as poorly as we were by this school. We chose to pull our kids out and when we notified the school their attitude was 'take your stuff and go'. They are not concerned about your kids here -- only their beloved test scores. Obviously test scores don't tell the whole story. If you want a happy learning environment for your kids and a welcoming environment for your family, Piney Point Elementary is not the school for you!

Wow. What a disapointment. First, I would like to say that the teachers are wonderful. However, the administration and front office treat you as if you were in kindergarten. If you are a parent who doesn't spend much time at school---I recommend it because the teachers are great. If you like to volunteer, stay away! We were told our first day from the front office that volunteers are for making copies.

The teachers at PPES were excellent. Unfortunately, the administration was not so helpful. I got tired of the administration talking down to me, so I moved my children to a private school, which is even better for them.

I currently have a daughter entering 2nd grade and feel that her education to date has been excellent. The teachers have been enthusiastic and helpful.

Even though I only went to this school for one year and for most of the year we weren't in the actual school we were in the annex, i loved it. My teacher was great and I made a lot of friends. Unfortunately, I lost touch with all of them. I'm now going into my freshmen year of high school and I would love to see people that I lost touch with. Maybe I will. But anyway, this school was great to me for the year I was there.
