Pine Island Parent Press
April 2019
From the Principal's Desk...
Can you believe it's April already? Things are on the move here at Pine Island! A lot of exciting things happened here last month--bookfair, parent/teacher conferences, leadership day, and reading month activities. As I watched the support from the families, I was truly amazed. It reminded me -- YOU are FANTASTIC! We really are lucky to have such a great group of students and parents! Thank you for your continued effort to make Pine Island a wonderful place to be!
- Mrs. Stacy Reehl
