Dear PRES Families,
November is here, and with it comes a wonderful season of gratitude, kindness, and togetherness! As we begin this new month, we want to express how thankful we are for our amazing PRES students, families, and staff. Your continued support and partnership help make our school such a special place for our students to learn and grow.
We have some exciting events to look forward to this month! On Monday, November 9th, we will honor the brave men and women who have served our country during our Veterans Day Presentation. We are also looking forward to welcoming families to our Thanksgiving Lunch at PRES on Tuesday, November 17th, a special opportunity to come together and celebrate the season of gratitude. As a reminder, Thanksgiving Break will be November 23rd–27th, giving our students and families time to relax and enjoy the holiday together.
As we move through November, I encourage our families to continue making daily attendance a priority and supporting the wonderful learning happening in our classrooms.
Thank you for being such an important part of our PRES family. We have so much to be thankful for, and we are especially grateful for the opportunity to serve our students and this incredible school community!
Wishing you and your family a wonderful November filled with love, gratitude, and blessings! 🦃🍁
With gratitude,

As we prepare to celebrate Veterans Day, we would love to recognize the brave men and women who have served our country!
We are creating a special Veterans Wall that will be displayed in our Multi-Purpose Room (MPR) during our Veterans Day presentation on Monday, November 9th.
⭐ Do you have a family member who is a Veteran?
We invite you to share a photograph of your loved one so we can honor their service!
📸 You may send a copy of the photograph to school with your child or email me a digital copy. I am happy to print the picture and include it on our Veterans Wall!
Email: eg1@pvs.k12.nm.us
If possible, please include your Veteran's name and branch of military service.
We look forward to creating a meaningful display that celebrates the heroes within our PRES families and community!
