Dear PVES Families,
Welcome to the Second Quarter of the school year! This week, our elementary students will be dismissed at 12:00 on Tuesday for our first day of scheduled Parent/Teacher conferences. Please be sure to be at the bus stop at the midday time on Tuesday in order to meet your child.There will be no school for all students on Wednesday in honor of Veterans Day. Thank you to all our Veterans for their courage, sacrifice, and commitment to our country.
Have you signed up for all of your parent/teacher conferences yet? All faculty can be reached at first initial, last name@pvcsd.org by email in order to still schedule conferences. Professional Support Staff (Clinicans, ENL, OT/PT) are available to meet with you, along with our classroom and special area teachers. We appreciate this opportunity to communicate and work with you in order to support great learning and growth for your child.
Many of our elementary students took part in a celebratory send-off for our PVHS Varsity Cheerleaders this past week, as they headed to the state championships! We always love to support our middle and high school students, and we wish this incredible team much luck in their competition.
Our fourth grade students have the opportunity to participate in the Science/Maker Fair this year. The club information is enclosed in the Weekly Notices attachments, and the application can be found here: PVES Science/ Maker Fair Permission Form. Thank you to Mrs. Bruno and to Mrs. Broas for the leadership they provide with this amazing event.
We look forward to the PVES Book Fair next week, and to the upcoming 3rd and 4th Grade Gym Show, which will be held on Monday, November 23rd, at 6:30 PM. Our elementary school will be closed for students for the Thanksgiving Holiday from Tuesday, November 24th at 12:00 (half-day dismissal) through Friday, November 27th. We will welcome/ everyone back to school on Monday, November 30th.
Enjoy the week ahead. We look forward to sharing our students’ Progress Reports at the upcoming conferences.
Sincerely,
Dr. Margaret Podesta
Principal
