PES Newsletter

Dear PES Families,

Wow, what a difference a week makes in the weather! We went from frigid and snowing to 60 degrees and spring-like weather! We hope your family and you have enjoyed this lovely turn of weather!

Our newsletter can be accessed here.

Class photos from Strawbridge Photography will be taken on February 12th. Order forms will be emailed and sent home later this week to all families.

Bookmarks are being sent home this week for the annual ShoreBirds Hit the Books Program! All bookmarks must be returned by February 23rd for free Shorebirds tickets. Please read the full details in the newsletter.

Please read our newsletter in full for all of the latest PES and CCPS news. This includes information from our school, the larger school district, and some of our community partners offering resources to our families.

Please see our upcoming events below so you know about all of the important dates and events at PES.

We continue to be thankful and grateful to our PES community for the successful launch of our One School, One Book at PES with "The World According to Humphrey". Humphrey is ready for 2024 at PES, and will continue to be in our classrooms, hallways, and other places! Humphrey has quickly become one of our students' favorite friends to check in on! In this newsletter, we have the letter explaining our OSOB program and the timeline for reading the book both at school and at home with your students. The book is now complete, but we encourage anyone who did not read it to use the resources in the newsletter to catch-up!

Important upcoming events included in this newsletter are:

  1. Lego Book Club - Tuesday, 1/30 - 3:45 - 4:45 PM
