My son recently completed his first year at Peter Burnett. What I like about this school is its small size, the extracurricular activities that make learning fun such as "The Great Reading Challenge" and the caring faculty. Mrs. Sullivan is very warm and truly has a strong interest in the well-being of the students as well as their academic development. Also, the school librarian is very skilled and knowledgeable about the use of IT and how to apply it to learning. Chrome Books were a part of the 5th grade curriculum last year and this IT will be added to the 4th grade curriculum in the coming year. My son has made great friends and the diverse student population has contributed to his appreciation for different cultures and customs. Great school, great faculty and great community!

My son learned a lot and excelled this school year. The assignments were appropriate for his learning style and learning ability.

The homework assignments are appropriate for my son's age and learning ability. The use of the work book Simple Solutions is a good way for students to revisit topics in Math already covered and they do this on a daily basis.

This school has a strong emphasis on good citizenship and it has built in incentives to encourage students to make good decisions. There are weekly and bimonthly rewards when students exude positive citizenship.

This is going to be my daughters fist year at this school . She will be in the 3rd grade. She's excited and nervous, but I know she will be fine and safe. I'm looking forward to a wonderful school year.
