PES Notes
Week of December 12th-16th
A busy week ahead!
Hello PES Family!!
Here we are! It is the week before our Christmas break, and it will be busy. We have our programs Monday and Tuesday, Pajama Day Wednesday, and our Christmas Parties/ going to the movies on Thursday. You will find more information below about what is taking place.
Over the past week, I have enjoyed watching our students work hard on their CASE Assessments. Some of them have pushed through struggles and worked to improve daily. As always, I encourage you to read with your child daily. As we move into the break, allowing them to play video games and other activities will be easy. However, taking some time to read each day would help them. To be transparent, I struggle with my kids and want to prioritize it while out of school. Ten minutes can be impacting.
I wish each of you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Never hesitate to reach out if we can be of any service.
