Ashland Preschool Update

Hello Preschool Families!

What an amazing week here at Pittaway. We loved seeing our Pittaway families come together to participate in crafts, activities, and movement stations during our Winter Olympics event. The smiles, teamwork, and school spirit truly made the day so special for our students and staff. A very special thank you to our PTO for helping to purchase supplies for the crafts and for generously providing the medals. Your support helped make the experience memorable for every child!

Your feedback is important to us as we continue to grow meaningful family engagement opportunities. Please take a minute or two to complete our quick Winter Olympics survey using the link below and share your thoughts about your overall experience, your child’s engagement, and any ideas you may have for future Pittaway family events.

Thank you for being such an important part of our Pittaway community. We appreciate your partnership and continued support! We hope you all have a wonderful February vacation, and we look forward to welcoming students back to school on Monday February 23rd.

Best,

Amanda
