Yearbook 2020
Hello Prisk Families,
Have you purchased your yearbook? The deadline to purchase with free shipping has been extended! All books purchased by 5/9 will include FREE shipping!
All 5th graders get a free book (this gift is a part of the 5th grade committee’s fundraising efforts from the beginning of the year). If you have not received an email from TreeRing and you are the parent of a 5th grader, please contact: Amy Brust amykbrust@gmail.com or 562-822-0053.
Kindergarten - 4th Graders...For the first time in over a decade Prisk is expanding the yearbook to an ALL SCHOOL yearbook. Your book includes: class pages, Prisk activities, a special page for each grade and 5th grade field trips and activities. Please go to: www.treering.com/validate and use our school passcode: 1013833273861089. Books are $18.77 (including tax).
Every family has the opportunity to create two personalized pages. They are optional and only appear your child’s book. (If you have two children you can do a separate spread in each of their books!) You can also choose to upgrade your softcover book to a hardcover book for an additional $6.95 (plus tax). The deadline to complete your personalized pages is 5/13.
ALSO.....
We are still looking for photos from various Prisk events. There are shared folders on the TreeRing site. Please pay close attention when you are uploading photos. There are folders marked for different grade levels and various Prisk events. We have need your help filling the chorus, orchestra, band, family picnics, and many other pages in the yearbook. Please upload your photos by 5/9 to have them considered for the yearbook. Please note, not all photos we receive will be placed in the yearbook. We will do our best to include as many as possible.
If you have questions, please contact Amy Brust: amykbrust@gmail.com or 562-822-0053.
Thank you!

Teacher/Staff Appreciation Parade May 5th @ 10:30am
It's a Parade.... and May 5th is the day!!!!!!
As the map above indicates, teachers & staff will line the sidewalk of Albury and Los Arcos... (as indicated by the red dots).
The green lines indicate the parade entrance, route, and exit. Sticking to this route will ensure a nice traffic flow for everyone!
The blue shows the numerous entry points so we all are driving in the same direction. Make sure you use proper/polite merging etiquette!
We will allow folks to drive through from 10:30 to 11:30. This is PLENTY of time, so please be patient and drive slowly (a crawl, really). Don't forget your masks and to comply with social distancing!
You can bring signs to hold out the window, or just smile and wave... use your creativity!
A special thanks to PTA who will be providing to-go lunches for all teachers and staff who participate!

Winning Essays for PTA's Annual Essay Contest
(Sorry that the essays look tilted... we'll get non-tilted copies to the students and their parents.)
This is an annual essay contest in which students choose a teacher and write their opinions on why they should be "teacher of the year".
Please remember that our judges select the best essays only; the teacher about which the student has chosen to write is not factored into any decisions.

Updates on Retrieving/Returning Belongings
Many families are asking when they can retrieve their belongings from school and when they can return materials belonging to the school.
We are waiting for guidelines from our district leaders, who in conjunction with the health department (and other agencies/organizations), will provide a safe plan for all.
Once we have additional information, we will pass it along!
Best,
Principal Cohen
