| FROM THE PRINCIPAL | ||
| Susan Espiritu We at Pond Gap Elementary School are excited to see the anticipation on the faces of our students as they enter our doors each day. It is our desire to meet the educational needs of every student that enters our building and to create a desire to learn in each of them as well. It is our goal to partner with the parents and the community to ensure this outcome. Come visit or volunteer at Pond Gap Elementary, where "Believe, Achieve, and Succeed" is not only our talk, but also our walk. School Administration |
