I want to say a big thank you to the PTSO for helping set up a great opportunity for parents to come and visit with our new principal Mrs. Rebecca Rodriguez for our family night out at Panera and at our Coffee Chat. Also a big thank you to all of our parents and families that were able to attend those events and take some time to get to know Mrs. Rodriguez.

Last week, our UPC representatives and I walked around to each staff member's classroom and handed out recognition in front of our students that was turned in to acknowledge their contribution to our school. It was a great opportunity to thank our teachers and staff for all the hard work they do to support our students and school each and every day.

STEM Night is coming up Wednesday May 10th from 5-6:30 PM. This STEM Night will be a little different from recent nights, but it will be a great opportunity for families to come out with their students and enjoy an evening of fun! We hope to see you there.

First we always want to thank our community for supporting our elections here in PVUSD.
