Boosterthon Information
Pledging for the Panther Prowl starts has started!!
Boosterthon has returned to PUE this week and we are very excited!! We kicked off this week with a pep rally for Tracks 1, 2 & 3! Students and families are gathering pledges for every lap your student runs (30-35 laps) at the Pleasant Union Panther Prowl. The Panther Prowl fun run will be on 10/17 for Track 3 & 10/28 for the other tracks. Students will also experience Mindspark: Wild West which combines S.T.E.A.M. skills (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) with character-building. While they're teaming up with the Mindspark kids to save Dr. Shock, our students will learn five character traits that will help strengthen themselves and our world.
The funds raised will cover the landscaper (approximately $15K), technology, cultural arts, instructional supplies, family and staff events and scholarship funds. WE NEED YOUR HELP TO MEET OUR FUNDRAISING GOAL! PLEASE HELP YOUR CHILD COMPLETE THESE STEPS:
- Register your student(s) on FUNRUN.COM
- Reach out to sponsors by sharing your pledge link.
- All pledges and payments are made online.*
- Cheer on your student at the FUN Event on 10/17 (T3) & 10/28 (T1,2,4).
As of October 11, 2019, 27% of the students are registered, 18% have participated, and the current PUE Profit is $4,870!!
Schedules
Playground Safety
We have recently reviewed data related accident reports on the playground. In an effort to maintain safety on the playground, please remind students of playground expectations. Additionally, it is important that all staff is actively supervising students during recess. Please do not hesitate to report any issues with playground equipment or our grounds that need attention. We thank you for all you do to support student safety here at school.
Veterans Day Concert
Veterans Day is a month away, and Pleasant Union always enjoys recognizing families and friends who have served in the Armed Forces. As well as two concerts of patriotic music, we do a wall in the lobby highlighting those people who are our heroes. If you have a special veteran in your life that you would like to recognize on this wall, please consider sending in a copy of a photo of this person. Please label the back of any photos so that they can be returned.
For more details about the concerts, please check out Ms. Freer’s Google site on the Pleasant Union webpage.
Thanks for helping us honor our veterans!
