Pearl Sample Elementary School is located in the southern area of the county. Approximately 520 students attend the school in kindergarten through fifth grade.

Constructed in 1972 with renovations in 1989 and an addition in 1990, Pearl Sample is an 83,000 sq. ft. facility situated on 17 acres on State Route 15 in the Cedar Mountain Magisterial District. It features a gymnasium/multi-purpose room, a networked computer lab and 40 classrooms. The school is named for a former Culpeper County teacher who owned the property on which the school was built.

Pearl Sample Elementary School is accredited by the State Board of Education.


 



Pearl Sample Elementary School is grateful for the support and dedication we receive from our numerous volunteers.

Our children delight in having a special friend read with them, do math lessons with them, and just share a few precious moments together.

Parents, grandparents, interested citizens in the Culpeper
community — all have something to contribute toward the education of our children.

If you are interested in volunteering at Pearl Sample, please call the school and ask for Mrs. Ann Lucas, volunteer coordinator. Mrs. Lucas and her staff will offer in-service and guidance about the volunteering program.

 
 

The Pearl Sample Elementary School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) was founded to form a partnership between families and faculty in order to build a stronger school community.

Philosophy

The PTO should work to improve the learning opportunities for children. It is a partnership between families and faculty that requires the commitment of both sides to accomplish its goals.

  • To raise money to benefit the children of Pearl Sample Elementary School.
  • To abide by the laws/rules for the care and protection of children and youth.
  • To enhance home/school relationships so the families and faculty cooperate in the education of children.

Basic Policies

The following are basic policies of this organization:

  • The organization shall be noncommercial, nonsectarian, and nonpartisan.
  • The name of the organization or the names of any members in their official capacities shall not be used in any connection with a commercial concern or with any partisan interest or for any purpose not appropriately related to the promotion of the objectives.
  • This organization shall work with the school to provide quality education for all children and youth and shall seek to participate in the decision-making process as appropriate.
  • The organization may cooperate with other organizations and agencies concerned with child welfare, but no individual representing this organization in such manners shall make commitments that bind the organization.
