Welcome to Pike County Primary School!
Pike County Primary School is situated just off Highway 19 South in Zebulon, Georgia. We serve a rural community and are proud to have tremendous support from our stakeholders: parents, guardians, and community. Our building houses all Pike County students in kindergarten through second grade. Each grade level averages about 220 students. It is difficult to give actual enrollment due to various enrollments and withdrawals throughout the year.
We have 46 classroom teachers with the support of 27 paraprofessionals. Student services include: Title I, ESOL, Special Education, RtI, and Gifted. We utilize the inclusive and gifted collaborative model within the classroom setting. Students participate in “specials” classes which, at our school, are Art, Music, P.E. and Computer. Our administrative staff includes: Principal, Assistant Principal, Counselor, and Instructional Coach. Finally, we have great staff in our Media Center and Front Office, including a Nurse, to help manage our building. We take great pride in our school and our system! Together, we make a difference!

What Makes Us Unique?
Creating Diverse Opportunity
Pike County is focused on the success of every student in our district. This means enabling students to follow a range of different paths and not subjecting them to “cookie cutter” curriculums. We pride ourselves on fostering the skillsets of a diverse and multifaceted student body.
Encouraging Experimentation
We do this by providing specialty courses, curriculums, and experiences that range from computing and technology to farming and mechanics. Our goal is to ensure that by the time our students graduate, they have a strong understanding of what their skillsets, passions, and goals are.
Enabling Career Success
By encouraging critical thinking and diverse experiences among our students, we enable them to strongly set forth into their adulthood and succeed independently as they enter college, join the workforce, and become contributing members to our society.
More About Our Mission
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE BEHIND PIKE COUNTY'S EDUCATIONAL STRATEGY?
We want all students to be free to live the life they choose, free from limitations and influence. We believe that true freedom begins in the mind with independent and well-reasoned thought. Our mission is to help each student learn and grow throughout their early lives in order to attain their intellectual independence, which will ultimately enable them to excel as they enter into careers and citizenship.
