We are ready to compete in Read with Malcolm - Share the Magic Foundation #READBowl at PES this school year! We have set our goal to see our name on the final National Leaderboard. Today we had a little fun with a Pep Rally to kick off the #WorldChampionshipofReading that begins this upcoming Monday, January 8th! Get ready to start logging those minutes next week so that our team comes out on top! 💙💛
A huge thank you to some of our big Bulldogs for coming out today to help us get pumped up and ready to READ! Our students enjoyed playing games with our Varsity Basketball players and cheering along with the Bulldog Cheer Team. Shoutout to Coach Lane and Coach Hester for helping make it happen #teamwork

Don’t forget about our Food Drive happening this week! Bring in canned and non-perishable items for those in need.


It may have been a short week at PES but we packed a lot in those two days!
If you didn’t catch the videos of the Thanksgiving Day Parades inspired by the book, Balloons Over Broadway by Melissa Sweet make sure to scroll back through our page and watch both the K-2 and 3-5 events. Our students did a great job showing off their creativity! Also a special thanks to all the staff who made it happen!
There was still lots of learning happening in our classrooms including teamwork and stations inspired by turkeys!
If you have ever questioned the love and dedication of our PES teachers then check out the pictures of two of our amazing 4th grade teachers taking pies to the face this afternoon after making a deal with their students on meeting goals on a recent assessment!
Next week we will be collecting can goods and non perishable items for families in need.
As we close out this week to celebrate Thanksgiving we want to say how thankful we are for our school community. PES is the BEST place with the greatest students, staff and families around! 💙 💛 #peswheregreatthingsgrow
