News from Principal Lamothe

No words can express the gratitude for how much work you, the parents and PTO, put in this week to make our last full week a success. We had field trips, class splash, GSAA, Physics Olympics, field day, volunteers, volunteers, volunteers and in case I missed it, a plethora of volunteers and so much more I am probably missing. What I did see this week was just joy and happiness from every child and that is again a thank you to YOU and our staff. As we head on into the last week of school let's keep this momentum going end enjoy whether it's your last year at PRS or your last few days in a particular grade level. Again, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!!!

LOOKING FOR AFTERSCHOOL CARE?

FREE LUNCH FOR ALL - This year, due to Federal Assistance, lunch will be served free of charge. This year, there will also be a breakfast program ( also peanut/tree nut free) for students who wish to partake in that. There will be one “grab and go breakfast” offering daily.
