AES is nestled in a neighborhood near the Tyrone area in St. Petersburg. The school was originally designed for 9 classrooms, but has grown steadily to now house 40+ classrooms with our latest addition that was completed in August of 2010. AES services approximately 550 students, Pre-K to fifth grade as well as 5 full time ASD units. There is one full time Gifted teacher, two resource VE teachers and two Speech and Language teachers. AES also has a full time behavior specialist, a social worker, a psychologist, and an educational diagnostician.

STUDENT REGISTRATION INFO

https://www.pcsb.org/Registration

IMPORTANT - New students in kindergarten who enroll in Pinellas County Schools will be assigned to a zoned school. All other new students will be assigned to their zoned school on a space-available basis.  

STEP 1: Find Your Zoned School

Parents will first need to find their child’s zoned school by using the School Zone Locator or calling the school at 727-893-2187.

STEP 2: Reserve a Seat

To reserve a seat at a zoned school, use the online Student Reservation System (SRS) located on the district website, www.pcsb.org. You can use any computer, including a school computer, to reserve a seat. To use the Student Reservation System, you will need a PCS Portal User ID and password. To get a new PCS Portal User ID and password, visit any school. Make sure to bring a valid ID (Driver's License, State ID card, Passport/Visa, Military ID or Green Card). If you already have a User ID and password for another child, you do not have to obtain new ones.

The final step is to CALL 727-893-2187 AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT to deliver the list of required documents and complete registration paperwork.
