From the Office:
- Thank you for your continued support!
- Please return library books to Satellite Meal locations at your convenience. Buses deliver meals for pick up from 7:15-8:30 Monday through Friday; the elementary school has similar hours. Reminder: there is no registration form for Satellite Meals! Pick up as needed at your convenience; Paynesville Area Schools provides an average of just under 1,000 meals each day!
- We are proud to be your partner in education!Thank you for your continued best efforts in encouraging students to make good choices and in monitoring online behavior as best you can. This is a new learning curve for all of us, and a great opportunity to work side by side with our kiddos to learn and practice acceptable technology behavior. We've got this!
- Paw Packs registration continues! See the link below; Packs are available for pickup on Fridays with our Satellite Meals.
Bulldog Shout Outs
Please give Mrs. Hecht a high five! Her Donor's Choose classroom project "First Graders Like to Play Play Play" was recently funded. Shout out to our PawPack team, led by Mrs. Schmidt, for their receipt of a generous Community Giving Grant! And Congratulations to Ms. Wirz and team for their fully-funded award of a Prairie Care Fund Grant. The goal of this grant is to help create sustainable education programs for district and program staff to better identify and work with kids who may be struggling with poor mental health. Go Bulldogs!

Catholic Charities' Foster Grandparent Program
Paynesville Area Elementary School graciously welcomes Foster Grandparents! The Foster Grandparent Program offers seniors, 55+, the opportunity to work with students in local schools, or other non-profit agencies with children who need extra assistance. Typically school “Grandma’s” and “Grandpa’s” work one-on-one with kids who need some extra support both academically and emotionally.Foster Grandparents have the ability to use their time, skills and experience to help children learn. Volunteers put in a minimum of 260 hours a year and receive a tax free stipend, mileage reimbursement, and educational opportunities.
This is a great opportunity if you have time to spare, love to be with children, and could use some extra non-taxable income. For more information, please contact Sara at 320-229-4589 or www.ccstcloud.org
