Hello PLES!


Thank you to Mr. Zimmerman who was our first Watch D.O.G. this year! Watch D.O.G.S. is an innovative program being used by schools nationwide to be positively impacted by the committed involvement of fathers and positive male role models. A Watch D.O.G. spends a day at PLES volunteering in classrooms, assisting in the lunch room, helping at arrival and dismissal, and participating at recess. If you are interested in learning more about the Watch D.O.G.S. program, please reach out to our caseworker, Mrs. Holly Oliver.


World Diabetes Day will be acknowledged on Tuesday, 11/15. Students and staff are encouraged to wear blue on Tuesday.


Please remember that if you are volunteering in school, your clearances must be up to date and on file with the district office. This is true for all adults even if you work in education or law enforcement. Please visit the volunteer section of the district website for more information. Thank you for your understanding in helping us keep our school safe!


Conferences begin on Monday. We are looking forward to sharing all the wonderful growth your student has made so far this year! Please contact your student’s teacher, if you need to schedule a conference.

Learning Spotlight

During guidance encore, students have been learning about how to be a problem solver. Ask your student what they can share with you about the problem solving wheel.

PBIS and Bucket Filling

This week on morning announcements we talked about how using manners is an easy way to fill someone’s bucket. Great manners were on display during our Thanksgiving lunch! Talk this weekend, how does your family use manners in the home?


PBIS rewards for November are dance party and bingo!

PTA Update

Student Resources and Supports

Holiday Food Drive - As the holidays approach, we will be collecting food and supplies for local food pantries in West Grove to help support our community members in need. There are specific needs that we will try to collect for and divide up among the grades so we can get a good amount of the needed items. There is no obligation and give as it is appropriate for you. Your child will be able to bring it up to the nurse’s office if you send it in with them or you can drop it off in the main office. Thank you in advance for your generosity!

  • Kindergarten: dish soap, house cleaning products, toilet paper, paper towels

  • First Grade: Tomato products (sauce, canned), side dishes (stuffing, mashed potatoes, rice, etc.)

  • Second Grade: Beans (dried or canned), soup, other canned goods
