My daughter is in 4th grade and goes to Pearsontown Elem and I love it. Last year she attended Oak Grove (from 1st-3rd grade) only her first grade year was commendable. I was so fustrated with her 3rd grade teacher (and administration - she had 2 principles and an interim that year)I asked everyone I knew for help to find a new school.Pearsontown was recommended everytime. The administration is very supportive of the teachers and the teachers support the parents and the students and even the parents are very visible supporting the administration, teachers and students. This school has a great sense of community. I am very pleased. My daughter has done very well. When problems arise they are proactive and put things in place to assist.
