FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Panther Families,
It was a short but fun week at Paris Ridge! We continue to encourage kindness within our PBS program. Today we recognized 3 more classrooms by providing donuts to reward their exemplary display of positive behaviors! Check in with your child to see if he/she was in one of our receiving classrooms this week!
Our kids are getting excited about March Is Reading Month and so are our PTO members and parents! Again, if you are interested in joining in on the excitement of creating this experience for our students, please see the sign up link in the PTO section of this newsletter! Many hands make light work!
These unseasonably warm temperatures have us all reaching for the spring/summer gear! However, we do have district guidelines that we follow for recess. As your child is preparing for the school day, please be sure to reference the guidelines below and have him/her dress/pack accordingly.
