Pilot is a good school but very clickish. If your hair is not the right color don't bother trying to fit in. It won't happen. The same goes for skin color etc. The parents are the worst. One thing my child did learn at Pilot is students can be mean and the parents even meaner.

Large public school with private school feel. Have had children attending Pilot for 6 years (including one special needs) and have never been anything but very pleased with it. Children are expected to behave and rules are enforced, more schools should be that way. Excellent staff/great community involvement and support. You can only get out of any experience as much as you are willing to put into it, education included. As a parent you must be willing to take responsibility for your child and their actions.

Pilot is a large school with over 900 children! It has some of the most experienced and qualified staff with MANY National Board Certified teachers. The PTA is incredible with programs supporting all aspects of a child's educational experience. The PTA just won the 'Service for Students' award for Guilford County for 2005-2006. I have 3 children attending Pilot and 1 more beginning in the fall, and have not experienced anything that wasn't valuable! I have nothing but great things to say about the leadership, the staff, and the PTA at Pilot! Go Dolphins!

Great parent involvement at this school. Have been very pleased with our teachers. Great basketball/cheerleading intermurals in January/February. Wish the Advanced Learner program was expanded to earlier grades.

I agree with the negative feedback. This school's principal does very little for any student or parent and if you have a special needs child - forget it. Slow assessment, nearly no modifications, and on. Teachers disrespect students routinely, class size is high, and never enough assistants. I'd pay money for a private school before sending my child here.

Don't believe the two previous reviews! They all have blinders on here! Everything is just fine....if there are no issues...but if there are issues that need to be addressed you can consider it ignored! Children who walk are released without proper identification for pick up which could lead to a tragic event. Children here are to be seen and not heard. Run like a military school/ colony. All fluff and no substance.

The Pilot staff really care about the children, there is a lot of parental involvement and great opportunities for all children.
