Principal's Message
As you know, Governor Cooper issued an executive order that “all public schools close for students effective Monday, March 16, 2020 until March 30, 2020, unless extended beyond that date.”
Please know that all school buildings in the district will be closed on Monday, March 16. On Tuesday, March 17, our school will be open between noon and 5pm so that families can pick up their child's personal items, (i.e. medication) if needed. We will continue to share information with families as we receive it from our district leadership. This is all the information we have at this time.
We hope that all families stay safe and well during this tough time.
Thank you so much for your support of the PUE Book Fair. We are grateful to all of our parent volunteers, students, and families who shopped during this time.

ELEPHANTS, TIGERS & BOOKS OH MY!! “Elephants, Tigers, and Books, OH MY!” Our jungle themed scholastic book fair has wrapped up for another year. We had a very successful event because of our amazing school staff and volunteers Thank you to Rachael Paden, Valerie DeBruin, and Jennifer Finnell for running the fair, and collecting and counting all of the coins for the All for Books Coin Drive. We were able to sponsor 45 students this year and were also able to provide books for each teacher's classroom. A very special thank you to our wonderful Cafeteria staff for hosting the Books and Breakfast, to Mrs. Fry for allowing us to use the media center, to Henry for hanging the posters, to Mr. Schoenebeck for being our special guest at the breakfast, and to all of the parent volunteers. Finally, a thank you to our 5th grade students for helping with the younger students and their wish lists.
