Pine Grove Elementary School

rypolite: Great school with fantastic, loving teachers and a caring prinicipal! I have 2 kids in this school and we are so happy with the education they recieve. My son scored exemplary on PASS in third grade in 3 areas and was one point away from scoring exemplary in a fourth. My daughter will be in the advanced academic program (AAP) next year. There a goood bit of extracurricular activities, especially for an elementary school. We love being Pine Grove Pandas!
