Schoolwide Food & Supply Drive

As a celebration of our December Design Principle, Service and Compassion, the second grade crew is organizing a schoolwide food and supply drive to support Moscow's West Side Food Pantry. PPCS classes are having a friendly competition to see which grade can collect the most supplies. The class that brings the most supplies wins a hot cocoa party hosted by the 2nd grade. (Alternative drinks will be available.) The drive begins today and lasts until winter break begins - Thursday, 12/21 at 3:00 pm. Please send donations with your student or drop them off after school. Items requested by area food banks are below. Easy open pull tab cans are preferred for canned items.

- Toilet paper

- Toothbrushes

- Toothpaste

- Small dish soaps

- Boxes of individual laundry pods (pods are divided so more customers can access these expensive items)

- Holiday baking goods: sugar, baking powder, small bags of flour, spices, etc.

- Instant mashed potatoes

- Spaghetti sauce

- Canned fruit

- Peanut butter

- Jelly

- Powdered milk

- Canned tuna or chicken

- Pickles

- Condiments: Mayonnaise, Ketchup, Mustard

*Note: multiple small items are better than one large item so more customers can choose these items.

Lost & Found Clearing Out

Please check the school's Lost and Found. All items will be picked up and donated once the school is on break beginning Thursday 12/21.

Winter Vacation and Holiday

No school Friday, December 22 through Friday, January 5.

No school Monday, January 15 for MLK Jr/Human Rights Day.

Parking Concern

Please be aware that if you park in the cul de sac, you may be ticketed. It has a No Parking sign on the south side and a yellow curb at the hydrant. In addition, large construction vehicles and cement mixers are traveling through the cul de sac. We would hate for anyone's car to be damaged.

School Messenger

We have implemented School Messenger text messaging service. Please opt in by scanning the QR code on the flyer below or by sending "Y" or "YES" to 67587. This is a great way for the school to communicate important information to our families quickly. if you have recently changed your phone number, please contact the office to update it so you don't miss a thing!

MLK Jr Essay and Art Contest

Each year the Latah County Human Rights Task Force sponsors the Martin Luther King, Jr. Essay & Art Contest for Latah County students to encourage creativity and thoughtfulness around topics related to human rights issues that touch their lives. Contest entries are due January 25th. Students can submit entries any time up to this date. Contest winners will be honored in a ceremony on February 10th and receive a $25 gift certificate from BookPeople of Moscow. Winning entries will be publicly displayed at various places in the area.
