Quail Call

Join the PPCS Landscape Committee for Weeding Wednesdays before and/or after school pickup (~2:30-3:30)! We’ll have gloves and tools or bring your favorites. We’ll be on the island in the middle of the parking lot- stop by any time and see what the Landscape Committee is up to!

The sidewalk from Southview Ave to the school is closed due construction of the building expansion. If you use Southview for pick-up or drop-off, please use Nursery Ave or the pick-up/drop-off lane in front of the school.

Congrats to all parents on a sweet start to another school year at PPCS! You Are ALL part of this incredible Parent Crew that helps to support our school space, the students, teachers and each-other. One of the things that draws families to PPCS is the motto “We Are Crew, Not Passengers” and your parent crew leadership team is really grateful to all of you that show up in so many ways to keep this educational community moving on down the river.

This year we have great things planned and we need your help to make them memorable and fun!

First, save the date for Covey Day September 29th - our Welcome BBQ and Run The Palouse fundraiser is all wrapped up in one inclusive event on Friday the 29th. Details coming soon.

Second, please complete the Parent Crew Volunteer form and let us know some ways you’d be willing to give back to your school. If you’re interested in helping out with Covey Day, Book Fairs, Teacher Appreciation events, being a parent crew grade representative, or anything else there are many opportunties to get involved.

Reach out to us at ppcsparentcrew@gmail.com with questions or concerns you may have, okay?

With gratitude,

Kristine, Heather, Sarah & Sean

PPCS Parent and educator, Kristine Petterson, is offering her 8-week Mindful Parenting program this fall for parents who are looking for ways to move away from power struggles and into greater cooperation, responsibility and connection.
