“I cannot thank you enough for your communication on activities/lessons happening in the classroom and weekly updates to discuss with my son to help him prepare for class. You have given my family personal updates on milestones our son has reached that he didn’t tell us about, but allowed us to celebrate him because of the information you provided us. Also, kudos to your dedication to inclusivity for your students by providing weekly emails in Spanish and learning Spanish to communicate with families where English is not their first language. Your efforts do not go unnoticed inside and outside of the classrooms how much you love the children in your classroom.”

Ms. Boyle is the best teacher because she’s confident. She believes in people in her class. She thinks we can do things. She gives us double bubble gum if you follow directions.

Ms. Fay

I cannot thank you enough for your amazing work with Aviel.  I was so afraid of Kindergarten and everything that he might need and you treated him as if he were your own child.  Your focused care and dedication to helping him grow has been unmatched in all of his early education experiences.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!

“Ms. Fagan,

Thank you for being such a wonderful, fierce educator! You teach 5th grade with ease, yet work so hard to make sure they’re ready for middle school and see your students for their full potential. We cannot thank you enough for the amazing educator you are and instilling so much good into every single student of yours. The world is a better place because of you! Thank you for all you do!”

“Ms. Brauer is such a great counselor for our kids! Every day- rain or shine- she is outside at drop-off greeting kids and parents. I have yet to see her say hello to a student whose name she doesn’t know. In a school of over 1,000 students, that’s incredible and speaks to her dedication. Additionally, she has been incredibly helpful throughout my daughters time at Piney, answering questions about sticky classroom situations and more. Growing up, my father was a school counselor so I understand how difficult the job can be. Ms. Brauer makes it look easy- and fun!”

“Every summer our family waits for our student’s teacher assignments and each time, my biggest hope is that it’s one who will make my child comfortable and help them continue to be excited about learning. Mr. Conti has been a great fit for our third grader. Each day she comes home talking about their “class family” and feels like she is part of something special. It’s clear Mr. Conti is building up the students confidence and community, which is just as important as academics!”
