The Weekly Buzz 🐝
From Palmer River Elementary School
November 3, 2023
Dear Families,
We've had a busy week at Palmer River Elementary School! Last weekend, the PTSA hosted an amazing Trunk or Treat event at DRRHS, and so many families and students attended. On Tuesday, many students (and staff!) came to school dressed in costume, and it was a fun and spirited day.
We are looking forward to our Veterans Day Tribute next week, and our whole school is preparing for a great show! We hope that veterans and fourth grade families can join us for this special event. If you can't make it in person, the link to watch the live stream is below.
Don't forget that next week will be short with no school on Tuesday (Staff Professional Day) and Friday (Veterans Day Observance). If you should require assistance anytime, please reach out.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Kristine Kefor, Principal & Dr. Cheryl Leandro, Assistant Principal
