Shout Out Corner
PCE Teachers- "Thank you for ALL turning in your points - we had plenty of inventory and did not need to make any mad dashes to the store to buy more stuff because we knew what to expect. That was extremely helpful!
And thank you for reaching out to your parents to get volunteers! We saw some brand new volunteer faces that we've never seen before and they were able to experience how rewarding it is to volunteer at school :)
You have all just affirmed (AGAIN) that we have the best teachers in the world at PCE!" - Summer Powell, PTA VP
Thank you Mrs. Qualls and Mrs. Brown for helping me find good Reading Counts books for my students. -Mrs. Rhynes
Shout out to Holly Endsley for always being the best teammate! She is always there to listen when it's needed plus she does so much for our kiddos! I feel so blessed to call her my friend!-Karla Kelly
Do you see students, staff, volunteers and parents lighting our community with positive energy by serving others well? Shout it Out Loud!
