Facilities:

Situated on land donated by the Pope family, Pope Memorial is bordered on the east by Pope Pond and on the west by Pen-Y-Bryn Golf Course. The one story school has eight classrooms, a library, resource room, meeting room, kitchen and a gym that doubles as a cafeteria. Recently, half the yard entrance to the school was repaired with crushed rock. The large maple tree landmark at the side of the school had to be cut down as a safety precaution. There is a playground at the back and side of the school complete with a soccer field and a variety of regular playground apparatuses for the children.
