Weekly Update
Dear Paloma Families ~
This month is flying by! This week we are excited to recognize our local heroes at our Salute to Heroes celebration on Tuesday, 11/12. We are so very grateful for the service of our first responders and are looking forward to celebrating them at this special event. Heroes, we look forward to seeing you at 8:15 am. See below for more details.
Students! We look forward to seeing you all dress in Patriotic wear and/or red, white, and blue!
November is a great time to focus on expressing our gratitude! As I was doing some reading this weekend, I came across some cute gratitude kindness notes that kids can use to express their gratitude for their family and friends. I have attached the PDF below for our families to download, print, and use with their children as an optional activity. (Thank you Coffee & Carpool, for the free download
At PES we are grateful for the fabulous students and families that we have the pleasure to work with each day!
Have a FANTASTIC week!!
WE ARE Panthers, WE ARE Kind, WE ARE 'Pawsitive', WE ARE Grateful, WE ARE Paloma!!!
Warmly,

Kindness
Dinner table conversations to consider
What if instead of or in addition to achievement focused questions, there were also questions focused on caring? Such as, 'What did you do to help others, today?' At first, answers such as, 'I forget' could be expected, but as the question is repeated, and as the adults share their own acts of helpfulness and kindness, kids will likely start giving more thoughtful answers such as, "I shared my blue crayon with a friend who didn't have one.' or 'I helped someone on the playground pick up their lunch when it fell.' They will begin to actively look for opportunities to be helpful and act on them. (an idea from the Family section of the Atlantic, December 2019)

Square 1 Art
Don’t forget to order cool gifts for that special family member or hard-to-buy-for person. With over 40 unique and useful keepsakes ready to purchase during the Square 1 Art fundraiser, your child's artwork is the perfect gift for any occasion or celebration. Nothing says “you’re loved” like “I made this art keepsake just for you!”
It’s the final days of the fundraiser, so don’t delay. The school benefits with every order!

Safety Drills
As part of our safety plan, we conduct practice drills throughout the year for events such as Fires, LockDOWNS, LockOUTS, and Earthquakes. Safety is a top priority at PES and these drills are one way that we prepare. :)
Salute to Heroes ~ 11/12 @ 8:15 am
The Paloma Panthers want to honor all military personnel, and all first responders who are currently serving or have served in the past. We appreciate your service and want to honor you for keeping us safe!
An appreciation breakfast will be held on Tuesday, November 12th at 8:15 am. A parade will follow with a photo opportunity and a chance to interact in your child’s classroom. Please meet us at the lunch tables and feel free to wear your uniform!
