Ernie Pyle Elementary School Reviews

I believe this to be one of the best elementary schools in the state. The staff is caring and attentive, and I must mention one teacher in particular- Mrs. Ober. Since the day my child became a student of hers, his behavior and learning skills have improved exponentially. My hats off to Mrs. Ober, and kudos the the Pyle Elementary staff. Keep up the good work!

I cannot say too many great things about this school. The principal is new and she is okay. The teachers are nice and try their best with what they have to deal with. The children that attend this school are not motivated and there is a low parent involvement. I would love to see better quality academic programs.

Pyle provides the students with a warm, family atmosphere on a daily basis. Everyone at this site truly cares for the students; from the principal to the custodians. The staff is very friendly and accomodating towards one another. The school itself is very clean, and has a huge grassy field for students to enjoy during their recess periods as well as during physical education. Unfortunately, it did not meet its target AYP goal, but the staff is working hard to help the students by offering afterschool programs in addition to several types of interventions during the school day. Chorus is offered to 5th and 6th grade students every Friday, in addition to band. Our PTA works tirelessly to raise funds so that the students can be exposed to several educational assemblies. I feel very fortunate to be a part of Ernie Pyle!

My son attended Ernie Pyle for 2 years and I thought the dedication of the staff and principals were above average. The progress my son made while attending was tremendous.
