Principal's Message
It's hard to believe that we only have one more week of school before fall break and Thanksgiving! There are only four more weeks in first semester.
This week we are excited to share pictures of our PENA award winners for the months of August, September and October. Congratulations to Maggie, Kellan, Neve, Caleb, Jacob and Avery. For those of you who are new to PRT this year, the PENA award is in honor of our fantastic lead custodian, Mr. Ric Pena. Mr. Pena selects students who exemplify characteristics of Positivity, Enthusiasm, Notability and Acceptance (P.E.N.A.). Monthly, students are awarded a certificate and take a picture with Mr. Pena.
We also had fun this week celebrating the lunch period that earned the most PAWS tracks in the last month. Congratulations to 1st lunch who earned a fresh baked chocolate chip cookie from HyVee for their continued focus on lunchroom expectations!
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
