Putnam Valley Elementary School

Dear PVES Families,

Tomorrow is School Picture Day at PVES! The children should have their bright smiles ready! Thank you to our PTA volunteers who are helping to make this day such a success. All classrooms have been scheduled to go to the Auditorium for pictures at specific times for individual and group photos. It is sure to be a great day.

There will be no school on Thursday and Friday this week for Rosh Hashanah. Schools will also be dismissing 15 minutes early on Friday, October 11th, for a mandated Early Dismissal practice. Please be sure to be at your child’s bus stop early on that Friday. Schools will be closed on Monday, October 14th, for Columbus Day. Thank you for checking your calendars carefully.

The Elementary School’s Opening of Schools Report was presented at this week’s Board of Education Meeting and is now posted on our website. Please review the slides of the presentation, and let us know if you have any questions. We are so proud of all our current initiatives and great learning taking place at PVES! Thank you to our amazing teachers and students who took part in this presentation!

We look forward to welcoming the busy month of October this week. Thank you for your partnership in helping to get this school year off to such a smooth and positive start! We have so much to look forward to!

Have a great week ahead!

Sincerely,
Dr. Margaret Podesta
Principal
