We have applied to PLP since 2018 when our oldest child became school age. We sought after PLP because of its sterling reputation for high academic achievement, low teacher turnover, variety of opportunities in athletics, arts, science, smaller school feel and amazing, inclusive community.
This year we were fortunate to join the PLP family when our son, Oliver, got a spot in the lottery for first grade. He was placed in a classroom with a teacher that is experienced, kind and fun. Thanks to his teacher’s instruction and awareness of how he learns, he has grown so much in his reading and math skills. The STEM experiences and daily Spanish instruction have been new, amazing additions to his education this year too. He has made friends quickly and loves going to school.
What we have been most grateful for at PLP is the special attention Oliver has received from his teachers, the staff and administration through the year. They have watched over him to make sure he is adjusting academically and socially. As a result, he is thriving. We look forward to Oliver’s younger brother joining him next year for Kindergarten!
