The staff believes in the individual worth of each child. If this fails the principal will be enlisted to help. If problems persist parents will become part of the process. A safe environment where children have the best opportunity to learn is the goal of every employee at Palm Crest Elementary School. In addition to a separate computer lab, each PCR classroom is equipped with at least three computers, a printer and VCR unit for instructional use.
All buildings meet Field Act standards.
An inspection by the architectural firms of Hillman, Biddison and Loevenguth and Osborne Architects of all the district's facilities indicated that they would be safe in event of a major earthquake. The fire department and the District Safety Committee annually inspect the facilities. The school has a safety plan designed to prepare students and employees, as well as parents, to respond appropriately in case of disaster. The safety plan includes identification of appropriate strategies to maintain a high level of security and procedures for compliance with existing school safety laws. An assessment of the status of any school related crime is also included.
