PES Monthly Memo
November 2025
Family Reading Night
To cap off our fun day on October 15, PES sponsored our Family Reading Night. Families were invited to participate in reading-based activities, have snacks, register for a drawing, and receive a free book. It was such a great time and turn-out. Over 85 families visited! Thank you all who came out. We would also like to thank all of our staff members who made the night great!

Leo Druien - 1st Grade
Mrs. Wanke said the following about Leo: "I just wanted to share about Leo! He is the first to offer help to other students. Whether he is offering words of encouragement, helping someone with their work, or offering to play with someone at recess, Leo is right there! Already this morning, he noticed his brother's lunch box in the lost and found and went to get it for him. Then, he helped another student open his ranch for his snack. He is such a kind kid!"
Emma Abate - 3rd Grade
"Emma has made extra efforts all over the place. She saw a classmate upset and not only did she check on him, she rubbed his back and sat with him until he calmed down. Then, she checked on him later. She has also been better at time management and her writing is amazing! I am really proud of the independence she is showing in class." Mrs. Rawhoof is so proud of you!
Camden Rawhoof - 2nd Grade
Mrs. Colby witnessed Camden doing good things. She said, " While I was doing crossing guard, I witnessed something that made my heart so, so full! One of our students has been having a hard time coming to school. This morning I saw the student's mom driving. She stopped right where Camden Rawhoof was walking and the student jumped, He and Camden held hands as they walked. His mom pulled up to me, and I asked if what I saw really happened. She had the biggest smile and answered Yes! Thank Goodness!
Camden has such kindness and such a good heart!
Addisyn Haynie and Connor Deck
Mrs. Lucas is so proud of TWO of her students. Addison Haynie and her grandma bought sequin keychains to share with everyone in the class. She was passing them out at the end of the day as we packed up to go home. Conor Deck thought that was so kind of her that he went and gave her one of his Star Bucks for sharing with the class.
Dress for the Weather
It is that time of year that the weather is getting colder. Please be sure to dress your students accordingly. PES uses a "Feels Like" 15 degrees as our threshold for staying inside.
