Dear Palmer Families,

We have finished our first full week of school for the 26-27 school year! It has been a full week. We are finishing all of the beginning of year assessments. We had our first fire drill. I watched 2nd graders working on their pacing and stamina during their cross country unit in Phys. Ed. Later in the week, I watched them work on expanded form in math class. I saw 5th graders solving problems about volume in fifth grade. I listened to Mrs. Kleinle read a story with a cool soundtrack in Library with our Kindergarteners. I also watched as our Kindergarteners create a personal pizza in Art class using colored shapes to represent different characteristics of themselves. We are working hard at Palmer and look forward to another full week with our students.

Enjoy your weekend!

Meredith Nauman

Hello Palmer Families-

We’re looking for photos of our Panthers participating in sporting events, dance recitals, music performances (like piano recitals), scouting activities, martial arts, and other organized extracurricular activities.

Whether they’re on the field, on stage, or proudly representing their group in uniform, we want to celebrate all the amazing things our students are doing beyond the classroom!

Please send in your photos and help us showcase the many talents of our Palmer Panthers!

Parent Drop off and Pick Up

To ensure a safe and timely drop off/pick up experience, please abide by the following drop-off and pick-up procedures.

Form line in parking lot (see map)
Pull all the way up

At dismissal, if you do not have an assigned number, please have your ID ready for verification to ensure the safety of all students. The adult picking up your child must be on the authorized list you provided at registration.

If your child will be a routine parent pick-up, please register with the office to receive a number sign for your window to ensure a smooth dismissal.
