Our main focus at the PELC is our students, but we want to make sure those who are behind the scenes making every lesson, interaction and routine possible are recognized as we kick off the year.

Take a peek at our CERTIFIED team, CLASSIFIED team and OFFICE staff.

We genuinely have the greatest group of experts at the PELC who are all dedicated to the success of EVERY STUDENT - EVERY DAY.
