Open Quote I went to school @PWES back in the 2008-2009 school year when I was 9 years old, and in the 3rd grade. From all that I can remember, my overall experience through the year was VERY enjoyable! I went there for one year before moving, but I remember having one of the best teachers to offer, Ms.Herrmann, thats her maiden name, I'm not sure if she got married or not. I cant remember ever being bullied, or anyone else for that matter. I was active in school, participating in the science Olympiad and things of that nature, and feeling overall accepted and feel my education was a very good one. I would like to thank the faculty for providing me with one of the best academic years of my life thus far. I highly recommend PWES, though the school is now only PK-2. Close Quote
