Be safe and Enjoy Your Summer!
DRIVE Slowly ON AVENUE OF LEARNING
Several people are speeding and/or texting while driving through The Orchards neighborhood (the speed limit is 15 MPH) and we are concerned for the safety of our children walking to and from the school (as well as playing in the neighborhood after school). Please do NOT TEXT while DRIVING and please do NOT SPEED! This has become a safety hazard to the children who live in this neighborhood and to children being transported to/from school in a vehicle. Let us lead by setting a good example to our children and SLOW down. Let’s keep our Patriots safe! Thank you!
End of the Year Highlights
Parent Survey
We want to thank you for entrusting us with your precious children. We genuinely love each one of our Patriots!
As summer begins, we are reflecting on our first school year. We are proud of how our lead learners have inspired our learners to conquer challenging work and discover the joy of learning. We believe parents are valuable partners and members of the school community, so we thank you for partnering with us, giving us feedback, and helping us to become a truly great school for your children. Your support and patience as we have worked through the challenges of opening a new school has been overwhelming. Because we are continuous learners and constantly focused on improvement, we ask that you take a moment to complete this survey. This will enable us to reflect on our successes, while focusing on continuous improvement. Like our learners, we want to be the best version of PRS! Thank you in advance for your time.
Loving Learning at PRS,

Coach Hines and Coach Klinger just want to say THANK YOU to all the parents and learners who contributed, volunteered, or participated in the equipment drive, Survival of the Fittest, Intramurals, and Field Day! You truly made this year awesome and it would not have been possible without you!
Don’t forget to be physically active for at least 60 minutes every day! Have a great summer and keep moving!
