Principal's Message
Thank you for attending our First Semester Awards Ceremony! It is always an honor to recognize our student's hard work and encourage everyone to do their best. I am looking forward to our Second Semester Awards. I know we will have many more students earn the Principal's Award.
Partee ES needs your help! Each year the staff, students and parents must participate in the CCRPI Climate Survey. The results of this survey has a direct affect on our school's CCRPI score.....which increased to 82 last year :-). Our goal is to have at least 170 parents participate in the survey this year. So, we need you to take the survey and make sure that your neighbor does too.
Schools with less than 15 parents participating in the Parent Survey will be designated as Low Participation (LP) and the results will not be calculated. Schools with no parent or low parent participation will also see a negative impact on the school’s School Climate Star Rating which is published at the state level.
Please help our school by clicking the link and taking the survey as soon as possible!
