Paynter Elementary is a wonderful school in the Baldwin Whitehall school district. We have a unique student population, awesome teachers and staff who encourage learning and go the extra mile with our many complex levels of learners. Our staff is tremendous and students are fortunate. We are the 'United Nations' of schools and our children are thriving.

My daughter, who is in 5th grade this year, really believes that the teachers make Paynter an above average school. I agree that the teachers are exceptional, but the administration, Board, and Principal, are not working together to induce better learning. The curriculm is rushed, (a new math concept daily), is the norm. Also the children are taught to take tests. I wish teachers were able to really teach the children in a less rushed way.

Paynter keeps parents informed about all aspects they also appreciate parent envolvement. The teachers are great and like to work as a team with the students and parents. There are few problems at the school. The principle stays in great contact with parents and students as well.
