Poplarville Lower Elementary
A Note from Our Principal
Welcome to Poplarville Lower Elementary School. The faculty and staff join me in saying how proud we are to have you as part of our school family.
We seek to grow our students academically, socially, and emotionally in a healthy, safe, and supportive school community. We build the foundations of this community through meaningful relationships, relevant and engaging instructional methods and curriculum, and effective communication. We challenge ourselves – both staff and students – to always be Ready, Responsible, and Respectful. Our success in this mission will build confident learners who have the tools necessary to be successful after leaving PLE.
This year will be a wonderful year, and it excites the staff and me to be a part of lessons that will be remembered throughout life. Thank you for trusting us with your prized possession as we strive to impact this world in a positive way!
