Pepper Drive Elementary School

Posted June 18, 2008

I have 4 children at Pepper Drive. i can't say enough about how wonderful the school is! I have one son going into 8th grade there, and 2 children going into 4th. My 5 year old just completed his first year there in EAK and OMG it was a great experience. The EAK program on it's own is great, but to have it at Pepper is a bonus. The staff is amzing [ALL of them], the teachers are knowledgable and friendly. Pepper Drive is not just a school, but it becomes an extention of your family. Each person your child comes into contact with will have a personal and vested interest in thier success. It doesn't get any better than Pepper Drive.

This school has beena life saver for us. Our 10 year old did very well in k and 1st, then had to change schools, and fell extremely behind in 2nd. We cam to Pepper Drive mid 2nd grade and found out how behind he was, at least a full year! We ended up with an amazing teacher [they all are there] and she worked very hard with our son. We decided to hold him back have him repeat 2nd with the same teacher. It was the best thing we ever did. He is now 3 years AHEAD, in the 4th grade working at a 7th grade level AND accepted in the GATE program. Pepper Drive is the Best of the Best. The staff is exceptional and the teachers are supportive and well informed. The kids are encouraged to function as a whole and to be responsible for themselves and others.

We have 3 children we adopted and enrolled in Pepper Drive. before coming to live with us, these children rarely attended school, had all been held back, and had little success. The oldest was in 8th grade and had been to 16 differant schools, the 6th grader had been to 14 and the 2nd grader had been to 8. They were all at least 3 full years behind. The staff and tachers rallied behind us and the kids and we made a plan. To date, all three children are either at or approaching grade level. The oldest is now a Freashman at Santana and staff from Pepper routinely call to chack on him and even attend his sports functions. Pepper Drive was a life saver for these kids. It is only with thier support that the kids were able to find success and form goals.

Pepper Drive is the best school I have been to. When I came to Pepper Drive last year I was nervous becuase I have had a rough life and have been to 14 schools before. I always did really bad because no one made me go to school before. now I am in 8th grade and get all B's. I never got good grades beore and it really feels good. I work really hard at Pepper drive because I know my new parents and all my teachers and Mr T will be proud. I have a lot a good friends now and we do alot of fun stuff together. I have not met any bad kids there and no one I know ever gets into any real trouble. The teachers and everyone in the office are really nice and really care about all the students . I am proud of Pepper Drive.
