A Note of Thanks from Sarah Keiser
Hello Penngrove community. During this seasonal time of giving I would like to give a heartfelt thank you for all that you do. I continue to be amazed by the Penngrove community and your ability to care for and nurture each other. There is no other school in our district that has so many parents, grandparents and family friends mentoring their students. There is no other school community that comes together and supports its students, its children the way that Penngrove Elementary School does. The teachers, administration, staff and parents are all essential in creating this resilient community. Thank you all for being you and thank you all for what you do for all of the students at Penngrove Elementary School.

Children's Museum of Sonoma County is coming to Penngrove!
The Children's Museum of Sonoma County is coming to Penngrove on January 14 and 15! Students in grades TK-4th grade will have a chance to experience all the fun of the museum as a part of their Museum-on-the Go program, with the focus being on forces and motion. We would love to have a few parents from each class help out, engaging with kids and helping to make scientific discoveries and "Eureka!" moments happen for our inquisitive panthers. If you're free to help out, please sign up by clicking here.
Silver Graphics Art Fundraiser
You can still order products from Silver Graphics through June 30, 2019! Orders will be shipped directly to you so shipping fees will apply, however, our art program will still benefit. You can even upload different art and place orders for that.
Order at silvergraphics.com/shop with your child's access code. Don't have the access code? Email kthomason@petk12.org for help.
Thank you for supporting our Art Enrichment project!
Make-A-Wish at Penngrove
All around the United States, kids of all ages are writing letters as an easy and inspiring way to give back this holiday season! For several years Penngrove has participated in the Macy’s Believe Campaign towards the race to raise 1million dollars for Make A Wish.
Every Wednesday as part of Recess Renaissance, we will be writing letters and drawing pictures of our wishes this holiday season. For every letter we send to the North Pole, 1$ will get donated to Make-A-Wish. . .
Make-A-wish is a special group that grants wishes to children with life threatening conditions.
So this year in the spirit of giving back please join us on stage Wednesday’s at lunch recess.
Get your friends, family, teachers,.... Anyone can participate!
