(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have loved going to Pearson's Corner for 6 years. I am in fifth grade, and am very sad to be leaving. But, I know all of the teachers have been very nice to me and taught me everything I need to know to go to middle school. Pearson's Corner Elementary School has had alot of fund raisers and is a very good school in the community.
