Great experience!!! Excellent teachers and principal with a very refreshing mentality. We feel very welcome to volunteer, and teachers totally support parents.

Proud to be a Peters Panda! This great school is tucked away in a picturesque community. We were commuting to a distant magnet school but decided to give Peters a try based on the stellar reviews by my neighbors. Best decision we ever made! My gifted kids are progressing by leaps and bounds!

My daughter went to Peters for 2 yrs and our experience there was not great. My husband was not welcome to volunteer or go to breakfast / lunch with our daughter and he does have his Broward county badge. We even send a letter to the principal and she was saying as if no parents should be helping in classrooms, I REALLY THINK THEY COULD USE THE HELP! My husband was only able to observe with a chaperon to our daughter class. Meanwhile other parents are able to participate with the children and have breakfast / lunch with their children. I do not think the teachers are using positive reinforcement when teaching. We are present in our children's life and help them with homework everyday, not all children are that lucky and if a 1st grader is coming to class with his homework not done he needs to move his clip to yellow or whatever color that shoes he is not the best behaved in his class.... This is sad! How can a 1st grader be to blame? When my daughter told me this I was really saddened by the whole thing. Also they really want your kid to read so if your kid is good in math too bad for you! Your kid will read all day and be put in "special" program without telling you. If you want to know what is going on you better ask the right question. I really did not like my experience there... Really sad.

The school is currently a C school. If it were graded by my childs "teacher" It should be an F school. New teacher, bad attitude and no patience for teaching. Constantly yells and down talks students instead of encouraging them. 12 out of 19 students in her class are not passing 5th grade. Do not send your kids here.
