Dear Families,

We had a fantastic week at Palmer River! Our students were engaged, kind, and full of energy as we head into the final stretch of the school year.

Please remember that there is no school on Thursday, June 19th in observance of the Juneteenth holiday.

Also, a reminder that Field Day is this Monday! Please be sure your child comes to school dressed for outdoor activities and brings a water bottle. Sunscreen, a hat, and comfortable footwear are also recommended. It’s sure to be a fun and active day for everyone!

Wishing you and your family a wonderful weekend as we head into the last full week of school!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Kristine Kefor, Principal

As we approach the end of the school year, we kindly ask that you take a moment to check our Lost and Found for any missing items. Our collection of jackets, lunch boxes, water bottles, and other personal belongings has grown throughout the year, and we’d love to see these items returned to their rightful owners.

Please note: Any unclaimed items remaining after June 23rd will be donated to a local charitable organization.

We appreciate your support in helping us tidy up and ensure nothing gets left behind before summer vacation begins!

Please click the image below for a list of optional school supplies recommended by the district to help set your student up for success this fall. These items are suggested but not required. As always, if your family is experiencing a hardship, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Mrs. Kefor or Dr. Leandro—we’re happy to help in any way we can.

Summer is the perfect time to dive into a great book! Whether you're flipping pages at the beach, reading under a shady tree, or listening to an audiobook on a rainy day — summer reading keeps your imagination growing and your skills sharp.

We encourage all students to participate in our annual Elementary Summer Reading Challenge and explore new stories, characters, and adventures. Click the image below for more information!

Let’s keep the love of reading alive all summer long — happy reading!

At the same time, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Kelli Trexler, Courtenay St. Germain, and Andria Medeiros as they conclude their very successful terms as board members. We are incredibly grateful for the time, energy, and dedication they have given to our school community. Their efforts have truly made a meaningful difference in the lives of our students—thank you.
