PBMS Classes
Children may be placed in the primary classes for their first year of the Elementary Program. All placement depends on the academic and emotional progress a child has been making. The teacher, in consultation with the parents and administration, makes a recommendation on the placement of students.
The classes at PBMS are small so that the child and the teacher can relate intimately to each other. This allows the teachers to give individual attention each day to every child. The average Primary class size is twenty students. The average Elementary class size is twelve students.
Parents are provided with opportunities to observe their children during the school year. The channels of communication are open through parent-teacher meetings, parent education evenings, parental opportunities to help teachers in class and the school newsletter. The weekly newsletter informs parents about what is going on at school, upcoming special events and other important calendar dates.
