9.8.23 PLES Newsletter
9/8/23
Dear PLES!
It was a great second week of school! Students worked on learning routines for workshop time in class as well as our school wide expected behaviors.
If you are coming to school, you are welcome to park in any open spaces in the front of the building or in the side lot. Do not park in the fire lane. When dropping off items, leave them on the table in the vestibule with your student’s name, grade, and teacher’s name. The items will be delivered. Limiting the number of people in the office allows us to maintain a safe school environment.
As students have recess twice a day and participate in classes that have them moving, we recommend that students wear sneakers.
We always love extra helping hands at PLES! If you are interested in being a daily substitute teacher or para, please reach out.
Enjoy the weekend!
Mrs. Harrison, Principal
Mr. Blake, Assistant Principal
