GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The teachers at Pender Public Schools are very hardworking and outgoing. They all go over and beyond to get students on track. Every teacher will go out of their way to get a student on the right track. The teachers at Pender Public Schools get to know you personally and they are very friendly. They grade on their own time and usually keep up with it very well.
