Upcoming Events & Information for Pleasantdale Families
A Note from the Principal's Office
November 25, 2018
Dear PES Families,
It was so wonderful to see so many families at Parent Teacher Conferences last week. Thank you for taking the time to meet with your child's teacher(s). This time together helps us work together to support your child's learning. Please know that anytime you wish to meet and discuss your child's learning, the PES teachers and I are happy to do so.
- PTO Fun Run begins tomorrow! Students are encouraged to bring their PTO Fun Run hat to school and wear it during their Fun Run time. Thank you to those families who have already supported the PTO as they reach their goal. We look forward to a fun week ahead with our students.
- Instructional Coaching is a professional development model that pairs a trained coach with a teacher to help support the teachers own learning. Jim Knight, from the University of Kansas, is an expert in Instructional Coaching. In D107, we are excited to be able to partner with Jim Knight and Northwestern University to participate in Instructional Coach training. We believe that this model of peer coaching will support individuals as they seek ways to be the best possible teachers they can be for our students. At PES, Karla Boehnke, Jolene Lorimer, and Rikki Steinmetz, are in year 2 of training. This week, we begin training a new team who will join me in beginning year 1. Congratulations to Maggie Bialobrezeski, Meagan Bubulka, and Kerri Griffin who will take part in this training and bring back new resources and opportunities for our school. To learn more about
- White Buffalo Playground is open! We are excited to announce that the playground has been completed and we will be utilizing this new space during recess. We wish to extend a special thank you to the Pleasant Dale Park District for upgrading the facilities and allowing our students to use this space.
For our students,
Ms. Tomei
